    • RE: Turn on/off display remotely via ssh

      I assume the MM is running on a raspberry pi. The display does not go into low power mode but this may be what you are looking for…

      xset -display :0 dpms force off

      You may have to install xset.
      I have triggers through HomeAssistant (home automation).

    • RE: Strange problem with the default calendar modul

      I have the same issue, a repeating event will show up fine but if I change the time of future events or just delete one it has issues displaying.

    • RE: MMM-Snow enhancements

      I would think you would have to have separate modules to do this, like MMM-Snow is snow, MMM-Snow1 is rain… Then show hide he appropriate one.

    • RE: MMM-Snow enhancements

      You can do this today but need Home Assistant to monitor the weather. This uses weather underground. It works great for me, when it starts snowing my MM displays snow.

    • RE: Module to show a list from a text file on dropbox or the Alexa Shopping/Todo lists

      I was able to get a local list to show (I did not try from dropbox). I just modified MMM-HTMLBox to fit my needs.

    • RE: Valentine's Day on your MagicMirror

      Any help/thoughts on screen resolution?
      When I have my screen at 1280x720 MMM-Snow looks smooth and fantastic, but all my other modules don’t fit well, I tried changing the font size on my custom css but cant get it to fit well.
      But when its at 1920x1080 its choppy and does not look so good, and all my other modules are perfect.

      Great module in any form! Thanks

    • RE: Asus Tinker Board

      Sean, how do you use xset for turning the display on and off? I have set up my tinker board and all works great but the display. I tried to set up a crontab scheduled job with python script but I cannot get it to work. I have a script with “xset dpms force off” in it and it works through cmd window, but I cannot get it to work on a schedule.

    • RE: Problem with repeating events in default calendar module

      Did anyone get a resolution to this? I am having the same issue, I have a repeating calendar event that shows up fine, but when I change one item in the series it does not show up.

    • RE: Amazon Fire 7/8/10 & Magic Mirror...

      Just to calm things down a bit…

      You could possibly run MM on a Raspberry Pi (something inexpensive) and display it on the Fire. I could test it out soon, I have both. The MM-Remote-Control module has an option to display the MM from a web browser.

    • RE: MMM-Snow - Yet another Snow Module

      @Andrius-ok
      You need both MMM-Snow and MMM-Remote-Control, and its not just my config you need. here are the basic steps I took…

      1. Using home assistant (for me on another pi) https://home-assistant.io/
      2. Set up a Sensor in configuration.yaml for HomeAssistant for weather underground
      - platform: wunderground
        api_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        monitored_conditions:
          - alerts
          - dewpoint_f
          - temp_f
          - weather
      
      1. Automation in Home Assistant will use sell commands in configuration.yaml to run
      switch
          mmsnow:
            command_on: 'curl "http://192.XXX.X.XXX:8090/remote?action=SHOW&module=module_0_MMM-Snow"'
            command_off: 'curl "http://192.XXX.X.XXX:8090/remote?action=HIDE&module=module_0_MMM-Snow"' 
      
      4. Automation in HA calls these when the state changes to "Snow"
      
      • alias: “ShowSnow”
        initial_state: True
        trigger:
        platform: state
        entity_id: sensor.pws_weather
        to: ‘Snow’
        action:

        • service: shell_command.show_snow
      • alias: “HideSnow”
        initial_state: True
        trigger:
        platform: state
        entity_id: sensor.pws_weather
        from: ‘Snow’
        action:

        • service: shell_command.hide_snow
      I use home assistant along with smartthings to automate my lights...
      I plan to share my entire project soon.
