@MrH
Sorry about the quality of the photo, but this is what it looks like in it’s current lighting condition, 3% mirropane in a medium lit room. (the screen is also not up against the glass since it just for you to see the light transmission)

@Wedee Works for me, z-index and opacity does the layering just fine,

@oscarkindberg
But unless you want the fade to be animated it should be made directly in the image, easier for the raspberry to process.

The mirror film rarely lives up to the “mirror” part, sure it reflects light, but not enough to act as a usable mirror, secondly it’s quite difficult for a person who have never applied foil or vinyl before to get a good result without bubbles and deformity.

If you read around on this forum there are many builders who would strongly advice against any mirror foil, even the pro’s think the mirrorfoil is a real pain to get right.

@MrH will try to get some pictures up tonight, yes 3% isn’t optimal, it works in the current room it’s in, but I’m afraid that it won’t be usable in the room it will be in when it’s finished. To late for me, but thats why I suggest the MirrowView also :)

figured it wouldn’t apply to the div, but try this :

.MMM-Nest {
  position: absolute;
  right: 0px;
}

add

.region.lower.third {
  text-align: right;
}

To your custom.css file, should do the trick

sure, why not, I don’t know anything about iOS but they should have some “widgets” or something like rainmeter to display what you want.

I suppose node.js works on iOS as well, so MagicMirror should also work.

You have to make a copy of the file “config.js.sample” that is in MagicMirror/config folder and rename it to “config.js”
Otherwise you have no working config file.

Have you read this thread?
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1307/magicmirror-v2-1-0-update-error/8

It covers whitelist issues

@impuislupus think there is a } missing after the last maxCharacters row

@Anthony_Haddad

There is no class assigned in the js file, so you might have to change some code.

find

<img src='"+ this.songData.image +"' width='200'>

in the MMM-Scrobbler.js change it to

<img src='"+ this.songData.image +"' width='150' height='150'>

@CCoates you basically want the same thing as this guy :

Okey, lets look at the costs,

mirror glass 1.6x1m will cost ju about 180-300 euro depending on what type you choose.
55" OLED TV (55" would fill most of the size and OLED will work better for a smartMirror due to the contrast and pure black). 1700-2000 euro
the software (from mirror me booth) is 3100 euro
then we have the computer, probably to much for a raspberry, so you need a intel/amd machine
for about say 200-300eur as a minimum.
Then some other hardware as camera, probably 50eur
If you want it to be touch the cheapest way is IR-frame on around the mirror around 300eur,
running touch foil will set you back around 400eur

180+1700+3100+200+50+300 = 5530 Eur and that’s only the most essential parts,

Don’t get me wrong, I would also build my own, just saying that in the end it rarely get cheaper financially by doing it yourself.

@lolobyte Well, if it’s gonna be for rental it needs to be built like a friggin rock and especially needs a solid base.

And if it’s gonna be mirror all the way down to the floor I would make it at least 1.8m high.

BUT the biggest concern I would have is making the software stable and easy enough to use by drunk people.

• I’ve read about OLED monitors and there advantages for magic mirrors. Does this matter? I can’t tell if the monitors I’ve shortlisted will fulfill this or not.

I think the OLED monitors on market today is around 5000usd (Dell 30"), little pricey at the moment.

• How should I get the exact measurements for the mirror? Should I order the monitor first, take off the bezel and then

Yupp, get the monitor first, then you know what you have to work with, unless you are trying to build a ultra slim mirror you don’t really need to disassemble the monitor, which could be a bonus if it stops working while the warranty is still good.

@robertwilding

What you need is a thin LED (OLED) monitor, a raspberry, a good two way mirror glass and touch foil. The bigger dimensions you go for the more it will cost.

@planet4 japp, köpte pilkington mirropane, kostade ca 1500kr för en 120*60cm stor spegel. Så här i efterhand kanske jag borde köpt deras mirroview istället då de släpper igenom mer ljus (mirropane 3% och mirroview 20% ljusgenomsläpp).

3% funkar i ett normal till svagtbelyst rum, dagsljus, not so much

@planet4 tycker det är helt okej återspegling med tanke på att det är folie! Om du vill bättra på det så åk till närmsta glasmästare och fråga om dom köper glas från Pilkington. De tillverkar ett par olika tvåvägs speglar, inte jättedyrt och det går inte jämföra folien och en riktig tvåvägs-spegel.

Sry for the Swedish above.

If you’re annoyed that you can see through where the screen isn’t you could always get som black vinyl and apply around it, that way you block any light coming from inside the frame

@wewa00

Shouldn’t Display=:0 come after npm start?
