You can do it with MMM-CalendarExt2 (MMM-CalendarExt could also do that but with different mechanism)

With MMM-CalendarExt2,
you can transform data of event before display it.

transform: (event)=>{ event.icon = "fa-solid:user-secret" event.title = "My Secret" return event }

See https://github.com/eouia/MMM-CalendarExt2/wiki/Filtering-and-Sorting#transforming

The Mirropane available in the US (the one you linked to) with a light transmission of 11% and one reflective side of 68% is theoretical (and in my oppinion) a perfect fit for a magicmirror in normal lighting conditions (not daylight/sunny locations).

I’m aware there’s too many commas by ‘traditional thinking’ - but I kept getting config errors without it.

This was the default config, modified for testing.

Thanks all for your responses. i was having similar questions and your answers were helpful to me.

@yawns Wow - this is the level of detail I’m looking for… thanks!

So, it does the same thing now with my other magic mirror install.

The other unit is on a 7" touchscreen, I have it alternating between the Weather module and the Weather Forcast module.

yeah, I didn’t even realize it was there, either.

I stumbled onto MM2.5 10 days ago with little background in JS. I’ve had a blast getting my mirror set-up and am in awe of its capabilities and the developers contributing time and energy to this FREE project. Complaining about anything just seems misplaced to me. Instead, dig in a little and “learn the ropes”. Don’t know if I’ll dig in myself, but it sure looks like fun!

@mykle1 Ahh, I guess I’m one of the lucky ones. The one problem I had was an issue with RTSP-Stream locking up overnight. Fixed that by switching to ffmpeg from omxplayer.

Both boxes are currently running MMM-Carousel in positional mode.

The smaller screen one (uses the “pi touch screen” to the screen port) has one position alternating the two weather modules, world-clock with seconds running, calendar, and RTSP-Stream running ffmpeg mode nearly flawlessly (once in a while, it’ll slow the video).

The one I want the scrolling for uses MMM-Carousel now to switch out screens for MMM-NFL and MMM-MyScoreboard (2-3 copies so that the scoreboard don’t flow off the screen in my temporary install) - it also runs the default news app, calendar, MMM-Darksky, and the default clock.

Neither have any problems with existing animations, smooth as silk except for the previously mentioned ffmpeg issue.
