    • RE: Where to find....

      @Weste This guide has links to where you can find most of the materials. Amazon also has IR touch panels. Personally, I think adding touch to a mirror is asking for constant stains on the glass, but I haven’t tried it myself.

    • RE: Config editing

      @ZeroCool Another thing to keep in mind is the type of the value. Text types must start and end with ", whilst boolean values (true/false) and numbers should not.

      A small example:

      {
          module: "weather",
          position: "top_right",
          config: {
            type: "current",
            updateInterval: 600000,
            useBeaufort: false
      }
      

      Maybe we should add a type-column to the default modules documentation.

    • RE: Does all 24" panels have the same dimensions?

      @misk0 Hi! Unfortunately, it is not accurate to say all screens with the same inch-measurement have the same dimensions. When a screen is listed with 24" it means that the screen is 24 inches across the diagonal.

      screen_flat.png

      This means that the a screen can be short and wide or tall and narrow, but with the same diagonal measurement. However, most computer screens use the 16:9 format, and all displays with the same size and format have the same screen size. Older screens may use the 4:3 format (more square-shaped).

      As you said, the casing may still vary, so be careful if the screen has a tight fit in your mirror.

      I hope you are able to find a screen that fits :slight_smile:

    • RE: MMM-RemoteControl or vcgencmd Issue

      @MiPraSo Thank you! Worked like a charm :)

      To be allowed to save the config.txt-file, I had to edit it in administrator-mode (sudo nano config.txt). I also had to reboot the Pi after saving the file.
