    • My First Build, 24 Inch In A Custom Frame

      Built this with a 24 inch Samsung display and then a custom frame I built using basic plywood from Home Depot, some wood glue, and a nice black stain to give it a finished look.

      This uses 3 different custom modules I wrote, check those if you like https://github.com/AdamMoses-GitHub

    • List Good Monitors To Build With

      I thought it might be good to list all the monitors/TVs (with the accompanying URLs) people have had luck building magic mirrors with.

      Ideally these would be monitors that could be put into custom frames, so they’d be light, could have bezels removed without problems, integrated power, etc, but all success stories are welcome!

      Also list any you have tried and didn’t work out so well.

    • [MMM-TwitterTrendsByPlace] - A module for the Magic Mirror to display trending topics for a given place or city.

      Description:

      This sort of falls under an ‘infotainment’ category. Basically you can pick a city/place anywhere in the world via it’s WOEID and then display the Twitter Trending Topics for that place. The topics are automatically sorted by number of tweets, and can have their rank and tweet volume shown as well. The backend is also configured to support multiple instances of this module each displaying a different city/place.

    • [MMM-TweetsByTimelineOrList] - A module for the Magic Mirror to display tweets from a user's timeline or list.

      Description:

      This lets you view your own Twitter timeline (i.e. tweets of everyone you follow) or one of your curated list of users or another user’s list of users. It’s highly configurable, allowing you to set many rules for what kind of tweets are actually shown, ridding of many tweets that wouldn’t make good for a text only display in a limited area. Tweets are shown just a few at a time and then will animate in and out showing more tweets. The tweet’s user name and time since tweeting is also display.

    • RE: List Good Monitors To Build With

      I guess I should also start.

      I built a great mirror with the ASUS VE248H 24" inch. The bezel came off easily and there is plenty of space around it to put the Pi and other parts.

      Also, avoid the 32 inch sceptre X325BV-F, very deep and removing things makes it very tricky to work with.

      You’re close, just change the listToShow field to “TIMELINE” and it should work.

    • Determining module content dimensions before returning wrapper

      I gave a forum search but couldn’t find much on this.

      When building the HTML content wrapper to return via updateDom, is there a way to check the sizes of a given element or the module contents as a whole?

      I’ve checked using clientWidth/clientHeight and offsetWidth/offsetHeight but they always return zero I guess because nothing is actually rendered yet.

      My desire is to dynamically fill in all available vertical space on left or right side of the screen without having text overflow into a module above or below it. The width of the module in this case would be a fixed size.

    • RE: My First Build, 24 Inch In A Custom Frame

      @chieftainSupreme I do leave it running 24/7 without problem.

      The thermometer in the pics was my mistake, I left my VNC connection running for about a half-hour and in that case it will start to overheat, but otherwise it’s fine.

      I’ve also want to use the PIR sensor to automate turning it on/off, but mostly to save on the energy and the edges of the mirror tend to glow when left on in a totally dark room.

      @Dicous

      Try adding these config options:

      excludeTweetsWithQuotes: false,
      excludeMediaTweets: false,
      excludeLinkTweets: false,
      maxTweetsPerUser: 0,
      maxTweetAgeMins: 7000,

      @Dicous

      And you’re sure it’s working if you remove this module from the config?

      Also, the screenName field looks wrong, there should be no dashes or spaces. The screenName is not the same as the “display name”. Put in there whatever comes as part of the twitter.com/XXXXXX part of the URL.

    • RE: My Mirror

      What’s brand/model of the monitor you used? Also, where did you get the mirror itself from?

      Very well done, I may try to build one that size myself.

    • RE: My First Build, 24 Inch In A Custom Frame

      @chieftainSupreme I’ve swapped the Pi in the mirror, one had heatsinks and the other didn’t, neither had any problems for me.

      But I do take your point, most TV monitors as opposed to desktop computer monitors seem (from my experience) to run just a little bit hotter. If you remove the bezel and run into heat problems I could see how just getting some decent heatsinks on the monitor itself could be useful.

      @FlatPepsi You are right, flagging which ones NOT to buy may in fact be more useful or at least more effective at saving money.

    • RE: My First Build, 24 Inch In A Custom Frame

      @chieftainSupreme The precise dimensions of my order are pasted below, although I did have to sand one edge to get a perfect fit inside the frame.

      Effectively the mirror is the precise dimensions of the monitor itself once the bezel was removed. Once I had that measurement I could cut the wood according to the same dimensions plus obviously accounting for the width of the wood itself and adding just a bit more (1/16 of an inch) to ensure that I wouldn’t have trouble getting it in. Given I had 3/4 of an inch all around interior of the frame to put the mirror and the monitor I didn’t have much fear about it falling out.

      Also, sorry, I didn’t keep an official build log although I plan to build another one soon so I will for sure do that and let everyone know on here.

      Dimensions:
      Mirrored Acrylic Two-Way (Customize Sizing) - Clear
      1/8 (.118) inches Thick, 12-3/4 inches Wide, 21-15/16 inches Long
