Love it!
Many thanks to Kristjan.

@barnosch I don’t have touch, but I can control lms/Squeezelite via my smartphone. I didn’t know that PiCorePlayers was a system, not just some application. So now I am using SqueezeLite on my MM and that works great. My MM is connected to an usb audio system. It now can play music from my lms and MM is displaying the title. Quite cool :)

This tutorial helped me getting SqueezeLite running on my MM (latest Bookworm 64bit).

Those were my steps for 64bit:

Create a squeezelite “work” directory and download squeezelite

cd
mkdir squeezelite
cd squeezelite
wget -O squeezelite.tar.gz https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/squeezelite/linux/squeezelite-2.0.0.1524-aarch64.tar.gz/download
# for newest version see: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/squeezelite/linux
tar -zxvf squeezelite.tar.gz
rm squeezelite.tar.gz
mv squeezelite squeezelite-aarch64

Move it to the usr directory, and make it executable:

sudo mv squeezelite-aarch64 /usr/bin
sudo chmod a+x /usr/bin/squeezelite-aarch64

With my USB audio device the following commands works (there is more info in the tutorial on how to find the correct device)

sudo /usr/bin/squeezelite-aarch64 -n Pi4-MagicMirror -o front:CARD=MicroII,DEV=0

I don’t use it as a service yet (the steps in the tutorial didn’t work for me). So right now I have to manually start it after reboot.

@barnosch awesome. I am using LMS and it’s rocking cool.

With pCP one should be able to use the MM as a Squeezeplayer, too. That would be a pretty nice in combination with your module.

I am going to try that.

Best wishes,
Alex

@lxne said in new compositor on wayland:

I switched to labwc on my pi4 (an existing MM installation) and now always when the screen turns on, after it turned off (MMM-Pir), the task bar is visible and MM is only maximized but not in full screen mode anymore.

With another monitor I do not have this issue. When I switch back to my normal monitor the problem persists. It is somehow hardware dependent.

@sdetweil thanks

@sdetweil hi, have you changed the full screen behavior anyhow?
I switched to labwc on my pi4 (an existing MM installation) and now always when the screen turns on, after it turned off (MMM-Pir), the task bar is visible and MM is only maximized but not in full screen mode anymore.

I updated everything, but that didn’t help.
Any ideas why this is happening?

Best wishes,

Two modules…
My MagicMirror is running on an OLED display, so I am using MMM-MagicMover and MMM-BurnIn to prevent screen damage.

and a complete suite…
MMM-GoogleAssistant and its components (Pages, Volume, Screen, Pir, Keyboard, TelegramBot, …) – priceless.

@tpam03 Hi Pete, this still doesn’t work, right?
Is it even possible to play ‘loved songs’ from such an external player?
I thought that I have read it’s not somewhere.

@btastic MMM-Tools does that, too.

@benscammell
I really do like this mobile oled monitor for my MM. INNOCN 15.6" OLED Portable Monitor Full HD 1080P.

To counteract a possible burn in effect I use two modules: MMM-MagicMover and MMM-BurnIn.
