So after 14 days I was FINALLY able to find a volunteer strong enough to help me hanging this 30 kg 55" smart mirror to the bathroom wall!

I took inspiration from @spitzlbergerj wonderfull smart mirror and I have to thank him for giving me the Sketchup file and all the informations needed!

The frame is made by beechwood (all the cutting and moulding was made by a carpenter) with specific measures to perfectly contain the LED TV.

The glass has been glued to the frame by using a very special glue called Soudal Fix All High Tack.
Keep it in mind if you want to make a borderless smart mirror as it is very effective.

List of parts:

• Raspberry Pi 3 B+
• 55" Samsung LED TV UE55NU7170
• Beech strips
• Pilkington MirroView glass
• 15W SEBSON Mirror Light LED
• Poly Pool pp2522.2 Spaziozero Socket Rack
• BTicino S3610D/F Connector Adaptor for P 30 and Pin 10 Amp with Lightning Protection
• USB microphone Andoer (I made a hole at the bottom in the center of the frame to fit it)
• 2 x GedoTec Cabinet hanger Cabinet suspension invisible Upper cabinet Buoyancy 130 kg Steel zinc plated for Press-in operation (find in the link also the leftside hanger)
• A bunch of very good & handy WAGO 221-413 ELECTRICAL WIRE BLOCK CONNECTOR STRIP
• A generic 4000K LED strip all around the frame to improve room light

List of 3rd-party modules:

• MMM-AssistantMk2
• MMM-DarkSkyForecast
• MMM-Hotword
• MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify
• MMM-PushBulletNotifications
• MMM-Remote-Control
• MMM-RTSPStream

Some other pics of my mirror:

Special thanks go to (again) @spitzlbergerj , @Sean (especially for custom voice command needs and for initial modules setup), @shbatm for struggling at trying to help me fixing bugs and (my bad) mistakes done by myself (), @evroom and whoever else I forgot to mention (sorry!).

Feel free to ask here, but give me time to answer because I have a quite busy life.

SketchUp file for the frame:

@bleusswissbless lol at the headset with microphone!

Fair enough if it is working as intended.

@dazza120 yes.

You can read here a very good article about all the good things it can do and how the Pi 4 is performing compared to the previous generation.

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/raspberry-pi-4-b,6193.html

I want to thank @Sean publicly for having helped me privately into solving the issue!

@justjim1220 thanks didn’t know about that.

Will run it as soon as I get home.

@dæmoneyes yes correct, but if you aren’t going to do a mirror bigger than let’s say a A4 paper then you can ask Pilkington to send you a free sample.

I did and they sent it without any hassle.

@dazza120 oh alright that’s the same solution I used with another board.

@justjim1220 sorry didn’t read properly your suggestion and missed that forward slash!

Everything is sorted now thanks again!

@dæmoneyes I got the TV for free from Samsung because of a promotion.
Everything else is almost all stuff I was already having apart from the hangers and other minor things.

Let’s say that if I had to buy everything from scratch it would have costed about 600-700 EUR?

Side view is where the LED strip is.
Tell me if you want to see it anyway.

@Cr4z33 said in MMM-Spotify:

@ejay-ibm @Sean I noticed only now that if using allowDevices: with the Raspotify device name I can then hear the music, but somehow the module doesn’t ‘wake up’ and keeps showing the Spotify logo only.

Guys any idea why?

Also @ejay-ibm maybe it’s because I translated them into Italian, but the commands used with MMM-AssistantMk2 that you posted earlier this week don’t get applied.
Ie. I say the hotword and then ‘next song’ and nothing happens…

Usually GA either executes the command or replies saying he didn’t understand, but not this time…

@Bugsounet neither do I usually, but all solutions found around have failed.

USB microphones do not get detected anymore from one day to another… ‍️

Of course they work perfectly if ie. I connect them to my Windows 10 computer.

@sdetweil okie dokie I am going to reinstall both Debian and MM too in the next days because of other issues.

I will reply here thanks.

@sdetweil OK where should I look at please ?

@sdetweil I’ve installed your fork and… it’s going back and forth too!

Here’s my module config just in case:

		{
			module: "MMM-NewsFeedTicker",
			disabled: false,
			position: "bottom_bar",
			//classes: "day_scheduler",
			config: {
					feeds: [

				}
		},

@sdetweil cheers going to do it as soon as I am done with reinstalling Debian (stupid issue with USB mics not detected anymore…)!

I will reply here.

@sdetweil I tried using your defaults as well by getting the issue again.

At this point could Debian 10 running (natively of course) on an Intel NUC be the problem?

@sdetweil said in [MMM-NewsFeedTicker] scroll from left to right only?:

@Cr4z33 that is
~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css
right?

and u edited the MMM-NewsFeedTicker.css in the MMM-NewsFeedTicker module folder to add my changes, yes?

Correct.

@sdetweil I deleted the file.

Yes I restarted MM.

@sdetweil indeed so that’s the reason then??

Update:
Nope it keeps going back and forth even without custom.css entry…

@sdetweil said in [MMM-NewsFeedTicker] scroll from left to right only?:

@Cr4z33 did u see my post above?

Yep saw also the video.

Dunno why my MM system ignores the CSS edit…
