Did you try running sudo raspi-config and enabling the camera?

@strawberry-3-141 Try timeFormat: 12, instead of timeformat: 12,.

Capitalization has gotten me more times that I can count.

@Mitchfarino Yeah, I’m going to have to tweak the code for the the swipe module though. Right now it puts out a press for 1 second. Alexa needs you to hold down the button for your entire question.

You don’t have to, if you just want to use a jumper cable like this one:

It should connect the raspberry pi to the sonic device.

@Mitchfarino I set up my pi like in the video from this post.

I used this switch, since it has a RGB led built into the ring for display indications. Alexa works pretty well, but I haven’t tried to integrate that into the magicmirror program. I’m just using it as a separate feature.

There is another post that talks about voice control. Near the end they have a link with someone setting up Jasper on their raspberry pi.

Obviously they’re two different services. I like Alexa since it’s not always listening (Hence the button). Some people like the Jasper “always on” feature much like “ok google” or whatever you say to start siri. I recommend taking a look at both to see which better suits you.

@Mitchfarino I will once I do wire everything up. I’m in the middle of a move, so when I get settled into my new place I can start building.

@firesgc Did the installation go without errors for you?

If you start magicmirror with sudo and it works, it looks like it’s a permission problem.

No, but I did test it behind a mesh speaker screen. They work just fine behind that, so I’ll just mount them where I mount the speakers.

I updated the module to also let you use it as a physical button. Besides sending notification, you can also have it activate another GPIO pin as a momentary press. I’m thinking about integrating it with either Alexa (which looks for a button press) or @EoF’s Hide All Module.

Or just get the new MagicMirror 2.0.2 that was released today. It has those changes incorporated.

That’s awesome! Thank you but I just got weather underground working and I like it :)

Yeah it does, that’s the one I use too.
