I also had this problem of flickering when I used the fake dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d. Now that I am using the “original” OpenGL driver it is solved for me.

thank you guys… you are totaly right.

@ryck thank you for pointing me to this. Maybe you could also mention this in the readme or even use the specified standard language of the mirror as value here.

@mykle1 still not working and changing every 30 seconds…
I have not modified anything of the compliments files and am not using multiple configs (don’t actually know how to do that). I can add new compliments to the list and they are shown, so it’s not a general problem of not seeing the config. Seems more specific to the updateIntervall, as I tried different values without any changes in the mirror.

                {
                        module: "compliments",
                        position: "lower_third",
                        updateInterval: 5*60*1000,
                        config: {
                                compliments: {
                                anytime: [
                                "Hallo",
                                "Guten Tag"
                                ],
                                morning: [
                                "Guten Morgen!",
                                "Hab einen schönen Tag!",
                                "Hast du gut geschlafen?"
                                ],
                                afternoon: [
                                "Du siehst toll aus!"
                                ],
                                evening: [
                                "Du siehst klasse aus!"
                                ]
                                }
                        }
                },

Indeed, very cool. I really like it.
What is needed to add localisation to your module? My wife don’t like to ready the age of our daughter in englisch…

@mykle1 yeah it is still updating every 30s now. I will test your value and report back.

edit: btw it is set to 600 seconds => 10 minutes

Hi,

I really like the idea of the mirror making compliments to the one in front of it (and my wife and all other female visitors like this too )
But with the standard update intervall it changes way to fast for my liking. I tried to change this, but it didn’t had any effekt. Maybe someone here can help me out.

                {
                        module: "compliments",
                        position: "lower_third",
                        updateInterval: 600000,
                        config: {
                                   compliments: {
                                   anytime: [
                                   "Hallo"
                                   ],
                                   morning: [
                                   "Guten Morgen!",
                                   "Hab einen schönen Tag!",
                                   "Hast du gut geschlafen?"
                                   ],
                                   afternoon: [
                                   "Du siehst toll aus!"
                                       ],
                                   evening: [
                                   "Du siehst klasse aus!"
                                   ]
                             }
                        }
                },

@lavolp3 great, your fix worked. Only thing I noticed is if the date is tomorrow it still shows ‘Tomorrow - Nov. 22’
Now I still have to fiddle a few glitches in the calendar module:

1. Having a event with start and end time it will be displayed like ‘in 3 days - 18:00’. It would be better to include starting time ‘in 3 days 15:00 - 18:00’
2. For a ongoing event it keeps the end time, but start time gets relative for how long it still goes on ‘1 hour left - 18:00’ (hope my translation is correct, my mirror is german). Maybe this could be changed to ‘for 4 hours - 18:00’ or similiar.

@lavolp3 thank’s a lot man, you are much faster and way more skilled than me
Just a little discussion: your code only adds the if clause to check if it’s longer than a day to prevent single full day events to be displayed as two day. But what about a multi day event beeing displayed one day to long (which is also happening right now)?

thanks for your comments @Nilnik @StrIIker
This solves the problem, but that’s not a solution
It’s more a kind of a hack to hide the problem. I use it to show my daily apointments inclunding multiday ones. Having the mirror show only e.g. my holiday started 5 days ago without a duration is kind of useless.
As I’m not the only one having that, did anyone ever looked into deeply? Where does this start? Is it a problem with timezones incorrectly submitted by google calendar? Is it a problem of fetching in MM?
If anyone has a guess, I would greatly appreciate any help. When I know where to look, I might also try to search the root of that bug.
Are there some people using it and where it works correctly? Or is simply no one using this module at all (without that hack)?
