    • RE: Album art from LastFm Module covering weekly forecast?

      @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'>

      @6447858

      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.

    • RE: My first mirror (NYC)
      • 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.

    • RE: The Start of my long project!

      @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.

    • RE: My Mirror

      @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

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