@Mykle1 Hi could you post the link to the film vendor?ty

@cowboysdude the only “problem” is that gesture are recognized from a max of 15 cm.
There’s a demo on youtube of a remote made from this hat plus a raspie in a wooden case and the guy is making the gestures pretty close to the box.
However even like that the wow effect is there

Actually this is not just face recognition (look at the demos ).

And…yes if I was good at programming in JavaScript I would embark in the writing.
And I will indeed try.
But for sure someone proficient should be quicker.

Was not my intention to assign jobs

Hi
I was inspired by your post and am gathering components to set up not only a mirror but my home server there.

One thing is bugging me…noise. my mirror wil be located in the main bedroom where we sleep…
What cooling are you using? How noisy?
Tx

Hi all
Just wanted to thank all for the great info.
I am finishing, after some years of reading and adding, my first mirror build.
I am very happy with it even if its not completely finished yet (software wise).
The mirror is 70x180 with a 37 inch screen. Rpi4
Rcwl doppler based presence sensor thanks to…cant remember user
Tv ir and buttons exported to the frame
4 momentary switchws + 4 switches to manage tv and somw settings
Intel movidius ncs2 stick inside and configured to be used soon with posenet and face reco (todo)
Embedded lovelace homeassistant dashboadd (tx mmm smartwwebdisplay module author)

Picam for face reco thanks @nischi
Google assistant hotword etc thanks to @Sean
Pir sensor thanks to @paviro
Pages thanks to @Veldrovive and

And many other users.
Tx again

I am also using a kinect to manage virtual mouse (movement and click) and am devwloping an euristic to intercept swipes (wip).

You can find a video here

As soon as possible i will write a better post

Happy ny to all

@mcretu Hi . Lost in the Post.
I think you refer to youtube not being displayed.
If that is the case, as @Bugsounet keeps saying (he said it to me about this…), red the wiki. It’s all there.

you need to change the config.js in config as follows:
https://github.com/bugsounet/MMM-Assistant2Display/wiki/Configuration

Assistant2Display need electron special configuration for web link displaying and Youtube functionality

start of the config.js configuration file

var config = {
  address: "localhost",
  electronOptions: {
    webPreferences: {
      webviewTag: true
    }
  },
  port: 8080,
...
address should be localhost for playing YouTube video
electronOptions is need if you want to display the link and Cast module

A big thank You to @Bugsounet for his help in troubleshooting.
It was nothing to do with the modules but with my asoundrc config.
the ouput card/device were not correct.
Thanks again!

@sdetweil nope I just grep my grep

@dvbit said in mmm assistant mk2:

HDMI

One little Step ahead.
Disabling Audio Output gives no audio feedback but then the mirrorr goes back into waiting state.
So it get’s stuck in “Spinning State” because the audio fails.
Maybe it’s obvious but I think it is interesting.

and this from the log is also useful:

[2020-06-01 19:27:11.533] [LOG]    [SNOWBOY] Retry restarting...
[2020-06-01 19:27:13.588] [LOG]    [LPCM16] WARN: arecord: main:828: audio open error: Device or resource busy

[2020-06-01 19:27:13.589] [LOG]    [SNOWBOY] Retry restarting...

So my audio ouput device is "owned " by some other process I guess

aplay -l gives:

pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

@Bugsounet So I have "Output Device Settings " item greyed out in desktop sound menu.
entries:

• Analog
• HDMI
• USB Kinect Audio
• Output Audio Device Settings : Greyed out

Edit:
Before sending Firmware to Kinect after boot (to enable it) the Ouput Device Settings Option is NOT there (also no Kinect Audio available)
After sending it both Kinect and Output Deive Settings Appear

trying to play the response using cvlc works but there is a PulseAudio error:

VLC media player 3.0.8 Vetinari (revision 3.0.8-0-gf350b6b5a7)
[01cb1d60] vlcpulse audio output error: PulseAudio server connection failure: Connection refused
[01cd0fc8] dummy interface: using the dummy interface module...

Now rebooting and trying the plugin without uploading kinect audio firmware.

By the way the Pulseaudio refuse seems to me consistent with the failed audio for the plugin

DOH! I cannot try the plugin without the kinect audio firmware pushed (no other mic is attacched)

@Chris said in mmm assistant mk2:

Small feedback after installation and use:

it works very well.

• I find it more fluid than the previous version. when invoked, it responds almost instantly. Before I used MMM-Hotword. I went on the integrated snowboy. Perhaps the speed of response comes from there.

• I have multi task. I can play a youtube clip on the mirror and at the same time ask the assistant for a home automation or other command. Before that did not work.

• I go through the Sony PS3 eye for the listening part. I did not have a problem with this one after the update.

In short, that happiness.

@Bugsounet
The work you have done is truly superb. Congratulations to you all.

Regards,

Hi One question: were you successful with the sound wizard setup?
Could you share the asoundrc file (hidden file located in your home directory)?
I agree the plugin is just perfect (had it working but then I broke something)

@sdmydbr9 this happened to me too. It’s just that the error that is happening has a side effect the deletion of the index file. repull it.
After fixing the main problem this will not happen anymore

1. If I find a good proposal on ebay I can buy you one . After all you are doing for the community if you like it’s a minimum. Should I look for France as delivery? It will work just with a Raspberry 4 however (below are not powerful enough). I really would like to be able to program in JS . I am dreaming of a play plugin like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLOB-T1mgdY . My son is waiting for it since he saw the video :-D. Ok I confess: I would like too
2. Do you refer to the chromium top? I am testing so I do launch it not in full screen (But I tried in full screen too)

eheh jumping from a pc (cleaning lady chased me away(, to another to a phone (discharged), to another PC.

the short clip above is the MM started .
I ask what time is it in italian
answer is retrieved
display but no audio
then keeps spinning
If I refresh through vnc, spinning goes away (I haev not tried another invocation)

@Bugsounet I will ask your advice on a simple js helper plugin for the C kinect gesture proggie I wrote. It would be nice to integrate it in a2d plugin
