After a lot of SW / HW and mechanical study (including design … ;-) ) RaspiMirror was born!

It is positioned in the living room and provides us with general information on 3 pages moved by a gesture sensor.
The frame has a “Flintstone” style and we are planning more updates in the future.
It is able to detect presence with a PIR sensor and turn off the monitor when we are not in the living room.
Behind the frame there are LEDs that for now I control with Google Nest Audio which is connected to the RPI through bluetooth for audio.
The frame has been designed to allow you not to disassemble the monitor and extract the RPI in case of breakdowns or maintenance, as if it were a card.
The project is always evolving, especially the sensors part is not yet in the right place…but I’m working on it!
I used a 4gb RPI 4 with Raspbian Buster.

The modules I have installed (for now … ;-) ) are the following:

MMM-GroveGestures
MMM-MyGarbage
MMM-pages
MMM-Spotify
MMM-AQI
MMM-iFrameReload
MMM-MyStandings
MMM-RTSPStream
mmm-suncalc
MMM-DarkSkyForecast
MMM-ISS
MMM-NewsFeed
MMM-Screencast
MMM-SystemStats
MMM-Globe
MMM-Lunartic
MMM-page-greeting
MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification
MMM-WeatherGraph
MMM-GPIO-Notifications
MMM-Multimonth
MMM-page-indicator
MMM-soccer
planetrise

Here are some photos:

How I composed the pages (General Info, Sport and the last Astronomy):

If this has been possible, it is also thanks to @sdetweil @MMRIZE @wishmaster270 and many other users for the competence and patience!

@sdetweil Yes…but nothing changes … also because “IdleTimeout” is by default at 0…

# Set idle timeout (in minutes) before the connection will
# be disconnect (defaults to 0 for no timeout)

I am testing a script that I launch every 15min using the “crontab” function.
I will report the test result and share the script here on the forum.

@MMRIZE said in Change page with MMM-Pages:

By my test, under 5mm thick plastic or wood panel it works. But there is no s/w fixture about it.

I did several tests and even a piece of paper in front of it doesn’t work … it must be completely free …

I should try the glass …

@MMRIZE said in Change page with MMM-Pages:

This gesture sensor has a short distance, but fortunately, through thin plastic/acryl/wood/paper/glass, it works. It detects changes in magnetic fields so except for metal/mirror(metal coated) it will work

Hi @MMRIZE unfortunately behind wood, plastic or plexiglass the sensor does not work … it’s a big problem!
Do you know by chance if this sensor has a SW adjustment (I don’t see any trimmer on the PCB …)?

thanks

@sdetweil said in Bluetooth timeout in Raspberry:

maybe,it’s 5 years old. but the term is idle timeout

Inside the “Input.conf” file he writes that "IdleTimeout"is already set to 0.
I however uncommented the line and put it at 0, let’s see if it solves … but I doubt!

# Configuration file for the input service

# This section contains options which are not specific to any
# particular interface
[General]

# Set idle timeout (in minutes) before the connection will
# be disconnect (defaults to 0 for no timeout)
#IdleTimeout=30
IdleTimeout=0

# Enable HID protocol handling in userspace input profile
# Defaults to false (HIDP handled in HIDP kernel module)
#UserspaceHID=true

# Limit HID connections to bonded devices
# The HID Profile does not specify that devices must be bonded, however some
# platforms may want to make sure that input connections only come from bonded
# device connections. Several older mice have been known for not supporting
# pairing/encryption.
# Defaults to false to maximize device compatibility.
#ClassicBondedOnly=true

# LE upgrade security
# Enables upgrades of security automatically if required.
# Defaults to true to maximize device compatibility.
#LEAutoSecurity=true

This should get you back up and running until I publish the official fix.

Thanks @j-e-f-f we look forward to the official release!:thumbs_up:

@plainbroke said in Omxplayer and Bullseye:

@Egnos
I am currently using the latest Buster with 5 different rtsp cameras ( i use carousel) and I have no problems viewing them.
Description: Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release: 10
Codename: buster
Just my 2 cents. Unless someone much smarter than me can fix Omxplayer in Bullseye. I have resigned myself to stay on Buster until I can’t anymore…

Hi @plainbroke , I installed the Buster as per your advice and for now everything works fine! Thanks!
I just have some problems with the bluetooth connection between the RPI and the bluetooth speaker (Nest Audio …), after a certain time of inactivity of a few hours the bluetooth disconnects!

Have you also had this problem with you?

@sdetweil a super signature for super developer! 😉

Hello people!
I connected the Raspberry bluetooth to a bluetooth speaker (Nest Audio speaker …).
It works well but unfortunately it disconnects after a certain time of inactivity.
It’s annoying because I always have to restore the bluetooth connection.

Do you know a way to disable this timeout?

Thank you all.

Thanks @sdetweil very useful script!

tip: add script link in your signature 😉
