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! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

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! :thumbs_up_medium_skin_tone:

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 (:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:), @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. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

@jew_lion go for MMM-PushBulletNotifications.

Same features, but perfectly working. ;)

@bleusswissbless lol at the headset with microphone! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Fair enough if it is working as intended.

@justjim1220 thanks didn’t know about that. :)

Will run it as soon as I get home.

@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. :)

@justjim1220

OK, thanks.

Update:
When not using a background then overall performance improves! :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

@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. 😉

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

Everything is sorted now thanks again!

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

@justjim1220 said in MMM-NewsFeedTicker:

you might have better luck using encoding: "ISO-8859-15" or encoding: "ISO-8859-9"
The latter one is supposed to work best with European characters

I still got some wrong encodings from time to time, but doing a search it came out that Italian users have to use encoding: "ISO-8859-16" instead.
