Have you disabled any other modules to make sure there isn’t a conflict with one? I ran into the issue with the MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic module (see pr for fix: https://github.com/vicmora/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic/pull/24). Before applying that fix I was getting the box, but no video. Also had issues with other modules loading.

RE: New non-mirror
Electrical plug installed, used a usb charger plug to save space, the Hubbel brand has a 3.8 amp version, which resolves the lightning bolt from displaying.
BTW, the gesture sensor didn’t work behind the wood panel. I’m guessing that the waveform is getting absorbed by the wood even with the through hole for the sensor. I’ll work on 3d printing a coer and mounting it on the bottom instead.

RE: screen rotation - display cropped
Do you have an entry in your config for dtoverlay?
#Enable the Open GL driver to decrease Electron’s CPU usage
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3dif so, look in the following file for a rotate entry. It and the rotate added to config.txt may be conflicting.
~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart#to rotate display, to rotate left, use left.
@xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate right -
RE: New non-mirror
Thank you all.

great job. What kind of camera and motion sensor do u use?
thanks
The camera is this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074N2TRRR
The motion sensors are connected to my smartthings hub, I think they are the iris zigbee motion sensors. I documented the configuration here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11065/using-smartthings-motion-sensor-to-turn-on-off-monitor

New non-mirror
We recently installed a new front door which has all frosted glass. My wife was wanting a way to see who is at the door before answering it. After doing some googling I happened to come across this site. After a couple of weeks playing with the software, working out a few bugs, and testing camera setups, I’ve come up with something we’re both happy with.
For my project I’m using the following modules
clock
calendar_monthly
holidays
compliments
weather
MMM-RTSPstream
MMM-CalendarWeek
MMM-BackgroundSlideshow
MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
MMM-GroveGestures
MMM-MyCommute
MMM-pages
MMM-Pollen
MMM-Remote-Control
MMM-TrelloThe case I designed to match an existing table in our hallway. The drawer face is false and covers the pi and electrical plug, which I’m in the process of wiring, but no wiring will show. The drawer panel also has a small hole for the gesture sensor, which I’m using to navigate pages mostly.

I’ve got a Smartthings hub and several motion sensors throughout the house. I’m using the sensors to toggle the monitor on/off as we enter/leave the room.
I’ve added some shadow boxes to all the modules to make them easier to see against the background images.

MMM-RTSPstream USER_PRESENCE issue
Just a heads up for anyone that uses the MMM-RTSPstream module, and in my case, with MMM-Remote-control. I’m also using the develop branch of the module. When I put my screen to sleep the omx_stream1 pm2 task wasn’t restarting. Turns out there was a typo in one of the variable names which fixed the issue.
See the bug report here: https://github.com/shbatm/MMM-RTSPStream/issues/52

RE: Home made 60" touch Magic Mirror
Great looking booth/equipment. It’s been a few years since I closed my booth business, it’s interesting to see the changes in booth styles and equipment used.

SleepNumber SleepIQ
I didn’t find any modules for sleepIQ yet via search. I’m currently working on a couple of other projects and came across a JS library on DeeeeLAN’s github project (https://github.com/DeeeeLAN/homebridge-sleepiq/blob/master/API.js) that looks promising for basing a module off of. It happens to have a couple of functions for returning sleep data, which might make a nice graph. Once I get the other projects done, I’ll look more into this, but wondered if there was any interest here?

ning) it’s inside in an air conditioned room around 78 degrees Fahrenh
I’ve got mine in a full aluminum/heatsink case, seems to be staying cool now… https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D3S1WBP
