Hey,

I’m hoping you can help. I’m trying to get a working voice assistant for the mirror.

I’ve tried a few with varying success.

Mmm-mirrormirroronthewall - seem to have created the skill and it responds on other devices… However nothing happens on the pi/mirror

Mmm-awesome-alexa - I get so far but I can’t seem to get Alexa voice service to work.

Mmm-AlexaControl - got this working. Love that I can turn the monitor off and on via Alexa devices…

So whilst the last one is cool, I’m hoping to do a bit more… Ideally I’m looking to play music and YouTube on the mirror via a voice assistant… It would be cool if it could answer questions too…

Is this possible?

@sdetweil said in Which microphone do you use?:

@jste84 i use a logitech c270 webcam for its mic, and a playstation eye, and a no-name webcam.

Thanks for this I bought a playstation eye but I’m still getting the same error… Not really sure how I fix this

I’m working on a similar idea to yours s i’ll chuck in my two cents on this… I’ve bought acrylic and read others say i should have went with glass… I absolutely wish i had.

Your glass in front of it might protect it, I read larger pieces of acrylic can warp… Mine has a bit, its ok if you are sitting in front of it, but if you look from a distance its not great.

I love my mirror and frame ( used some wood and stained it ) but my biggest regret is not going for glass. I’m trying to get the PIR sensor to work properly - I’m not there yet, it seems to be very sensitive and wakes up a lot… but that’s probably because i’ve not got it set up quite right…

@jste84 anyone able to help with this

If you use a mic in your set up? Which do you use?

I’m using a cheap usb mic, which was working but at standard quality seems to pickup interference and not work properly.

I’ve managed to test at a higher quality and it works, but I can’t seem to find how to change this so it works in modules…

Can anyone recommend a mic they use?

@sdetweil is it this line

sudo chmod u+s /opt/VC/bin/tvservice && sudo chmod u+s bin/chvt

That I need to change? Would I just change TV service to vcgencmd

Having tested the commands it looks like
sudo tvservice -p doesn’t work with my monitor. (-o works though which is strange?)

Vcgencmd works perfectly though…

Could this be a reason why it’s not working?

I’m having a similar issue using Mmm-PIR-Sensor

Using a pi 3b+ and it turns the screen off but not back on again…

Hi, I’m having issues where my mirror has been sluggish over the last few days?

Going to black screen, taking ages to start on reboot…

Has anyone else encountered this? Using a pi 3b+

Just wondering if there’s something I can do to improve this as it wasn’t happening before

Re: MMM-UKLiveBusStopInfo - Arrivals & Departures from a UK Bus Stop

Sorry for bumping up.this thread

I’m keen on this module for my mirror.

I’ve found what I believe to be my atcocode but I get a ‘loading bus info’ when I use this.

I believe the correct Atco is 73723972…

I’ve tried the other Atco in this thread and this works perfectly… Can anyone help me check if I’ve got the right Atco?

@Egnos edit: removed the module and reinstalled and it’s working 👌
