Hi Everybody,

I am in the process of going to create my very first magic mirror. I plan on locating it in our bathroom and i will be using an hp 23" monitor (E233 Elite display). I plan on powering my pi using the usb sockets in the monitor thus hopefully only having one cable comes out of the mirror itself. I am going to add a speaker at the base to allow music to be played through it to avoid having to put separate speaker systems in my bathroom and maybe add a microphone to allow voice activation. One feature i was interested in and not too sure if this would work would be to integrate an NFC reader into the frame. The idea being is that either myself or the Mrs. taps our phone against the reader and it will play our own playlists. The thing is though she uses apple music and i use amazon music so i’m going to have to find a way to integrate this into it.

That’s the idea anyway, i’ll try to keep you all updated with its progress and of course any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Michael

Hi,

Yeah i tried it with Accuweather and still had the same. I’ll try it with openweather when i get home and see what happens.

Thanks
Michael

Hi Guys,

 	userlat: "55.861790", //MUST HAVE BOTH
         userlon: "-3.827600",  //MUST HAVE BOTH
  }
      },

I am at a complete loss with this one any help would be appreciated.

Hi Hec,

This is what i am looking to do also, i figure that if you use the PIR and a button module to trigger a button press when the the PIR is activated. I think i saw on the raspberry pi forum that the power to the USB ports can be turned on and off this way however this only works with all usb ports and cant be done individually.

If you come across a better method please let me know.

Hi Everyone,

Just an update on how this project of mine is going. Its been a slow process due to work, trying to get a house buy out the way but i’m making baby steps. i’ve got modules in and i have the system set up to play my playlists using nfc tags. I’m going to countersink 3.5inch marine speakers into the frame, that way the speakers wont be muffled being behind the frame and glass and also they are waterproof which being in the bathroom would be good for condensation i think. I;ve also purchased the doppler sensor in place of the PIR. i’m going to put a LED strip behind the frame as mentioned in other posts and going to figure out if i can have this turn on/off with the screen using the sensor. my programming skills are mostly non exisitent so this will be a challenge in itself.

Anyway i’ll post some pictures when i finally get it all together.

Cheers
Michael

@Bugsounet - Yeah would be but i think that will be another project for another day. I haven’t constructed the physical mirror yet so i’, just trying to set up some modules and stuff using my laptop as a display through vnc first. When doing the construction i’ll be adding a USB mic, radar sensor etc so this will give me some extra things to play with

@hango worked a treat thanks

Hi Guys,

Getting somewhere with my new MM. Solved some of my issues with the help of you all so thanks very much…However the next issue i have is when loading a youtube vide onto the iFrame-Ping module it doesn’t autoplay. i checked the electron.js file and everything seems in order there. The youtube video i am trying to link is https://www.youtube.com/embed/9Auq9mYxFEE

Cheers
Michael

Sorry in the MM-Remote-Control git page you have the option of doing either an auto installation or a manual installation. I dont know if the issue i have is something to do with PM2?

i also tried the automatic install and manual install too

Hi,

i used sudo git clone to install
