    • RE: [HOW_TO] MagicMirror as Desktop Wallpaper (all platform : updated)

      @JohnGalt
      To be honest, I always install MM on various env, manually by myself. Never with his script. So my experience will not be helpful.
      Anyway,
      Even in windows (I installed MM many times on Windows) it is always same.

      1. Install git-bash
      2. Install nvm-for-windows, then install node js through it.
      3. Make a working directory for MM on git-bash terminal.
      4. Clone repository of MM on that directory with git command.
      5. Edit some path in package.json for Windows.
      6. execute npm install.
      7. Make config.js, custom.css
      8. For fonts and bundle, install them.

      Well, For me it’s not difficult at all but I recommend @sdetweil ‘s script for beginners. As far as I know, it will work on all Windows version.

    • RE: ChatGpt intergration

      There are several TTS modules, so output would not be a big issue.(And text-only-displaying would not be the issue at all.)

      The real issue might be how to ask/input.
      One idea is using telegramBot. Hmmm… interesting.

      I think you did ‘npm install’ in wrong directory.(maybe /modules directory instead of /modules/MMM-GooglePhotos , I guess)

      Ref. this; https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15732/contrasting-text-on-a-changing-background-again/3?_=1663916722258

      I think most efficient and easiest way is using text-shadow dropping.

    • RE: Controller Board crashes after a while

      @nyghtx
      I used the same hw with you,(in my case, controller is slightly different anyway)
      Most possible reason might be the physical connection is broken. Keep the cable plugging tightly.

    • RE: Use local ICS file instead

      @plainbroke

      I found two things;

      1. Your calendars have no name (that is not the header), but you tried to refer to them in the calendarSet of the module.

      So, you need to entitle the name to refer specific calendar;
      cc58f35a-4b4a-4e31-8586-dd8cf6781ca2-image.png

      1. You’d better set a color to the calendar.

      The result will be;

      @OscarVsp
      You can check whether MM is really ‘most-bottomed’. Adjust some CSS to check whether MM is “COVERING but just transparent” against other icons or applications.

    • RE: Magic Mirror - RTSP not integrated

      @Ronald @plainbroke @BKeyport (or any others)
      Do you guys still have an interest in this issue? (RTSP implements on MM).

      4db42fbf-6b7f-4ab5-b597-da35b1bd9f68-image.png

      I build up a simple module, and It looks to be working, but my Home IP cams don’t support long-live RTSP streaming (Because it is not wire-powered, thus to protect from battery draining, the feature has limited.), And at this moment, I don’t have any RPI to test. (I tested this module on Mac, VIM3(Ubuntu) but not on RPI.

      So, I need the help of a real-world test. Anyone who has interests and has RTSP-streamable cams, Give me DM, please. (in this forum or eouia0819@ gmail. com)

      Even though MMM-AnotherNewsFeed was not updated for 2 years, it still works.

      {
      	module: "MMM-anotherNewsFeed",

    • RE: Which display to buy?

      If the size is around 14", I recommend purchasing a laptop repair LCD Panel from AliExpress.
      If you purchase a 14" - 17" laptop repair Panel together with the Control Board;

      Example

      PROS

      1. Since only the LCD panel is cleanly separated, there is no hassle when making a MagicMirror frame, and especially, there is no risk of damage due to carelessness when disassembling a ready-made monitor.

      2. The Control Board and the buttons connected to it are also cleanly separated, so it is easy to place when making a frame.

      3. Unlike general desktop monitors, the power supply is simply supplied with 12V DC (5V depending on the model), so there is no need to build an unnecessarily large and heat-generating power supply for general monitors into the MagicMirror.

      4. The panel itself is very thin and the board is also thin, so it is suitable for making a thin and ultra-thin MagicMirror.

      CONS

      • It is slightly more expensive than purchasing a general desktop monitor, but it usually costs around 100EUR/100USD. It is easy to get. Even if you don’t go through a Chinese distributor like AliExpress, you can get it on Amazon for a slightly higher price.

    • RE: MMM-CalendarExt2

      @askedal
      Anyway, I need to point this; The MMM-CalendarExt2 is going to die because of its unusual complexity to use and heavy dependencies of obsoleted legacy node modules. I already have archived it. I wish I can release Ext3 in near future to solve those problems.

    • RE: Problem installing new module (beginner), CalendarEXT3 not displaying

      @sdetweil @Manino
      Maybe your 3 calendars might have tons of events(at least 10) since long long ago time(at least 1 year).
      Past events might be too many, so all of the quota for broadcasting was already consumed by the older events.
      To test it, remove 3 calendars, try ‘us-holiday’ calendar of the default config example.

      If so, check maximumNumberOfDays and maximumEntries of the default calendar module.

      I think it is not the bug of that module but unexpected behaviour. Generally, for past events, People will regard newer events than older events as more important. But broadcasting of this calendar module contains older events prior to newer ones.

    • RE: Need Help Changing Background Image Based on Time

      @tonkxy
      You’ve missed this.updateDom(). It needs to be called when you want to redraw your module’s output.
      Whenever you call “updateDom()”, your “getDom()” will be executed.
