Last year i decided to start the project.
Now its finished. Maybe some extra modules but …its finished.

The goal was i big mirror in the bathroom. It should look like a regular mirror an no PIR e.g. in sight and the outer frame should not be visible. It also should have background lights as well! So lets start.

I build a new frame, completly by myself. I did some woodwork in my workshop.!

I createt with the saw a bevel to fit the LED-Stripe. I also have some experience with Hyperion… so i tought… okay… its anice idea to use the leftover LEDs for this project (in the end… i had 3 LEDs over ;), 1872 pieces mountet).

Here you see the old mirror which was there for some time (i had this always in my mind). And do you see the Alexa? I didnt want to see Alexa anymore but want to hera the music.

To mount it i decided to use a french cleat. Pretty easy to build, install and very reliable.

I didnt have nice Wifi… so i decided a few week ago to make some hole in the wall and install a LAN-cable and also a wall plug.

Then go for the paint jobs. I tried different things. Paintbrush, paint roll and spray can. With the brush and roller i had a lot of blobs in the surface, so i used the spray can. Not perfect… i want that glossy surface. But as an amateur- its okay. The color is RAL 7016. Same color like the closet.

I mounted a plywood in it an cut the monitor out. You already see the hanger from the french cleat an the monitor - 27" QHD! On top of the plywood i placed black paperboard.

First of all i brought for the mirror the Mirastar Chrome Spy. I was very brown and dark, so i brought an extra one from the forum from @Goldjunge_Chriz . Its okay…but still a bit dark.

Lets see the cables and stuff. Here is the nearly finished version. The cables für the LED-stripes are o the top.

After a time testing with the MagicMirror Alexa i realized that it pretty hard to get the microfone in a good quality and als that its no longer possible to stream music to non Alexa-devices. So i 3Dprinted a mounting for the Echo Dot 3.

The are 2 PSU- One 12V (the white one) for the Echo Dot to have a slim fit in back and also a 5V for the LED stripe and the Raspberry Pi4. I also added a StepUp converter to have stable 5v for the RPI to prevent errors. You also see the PIR-Sensor case. Created and 3D printed by myself.

I also created a smal bracket to hold the RPI in place. But noch back-picture yet.

I use the following modules with very small customisations:

Tada! Here is the mirror:

Now to hyperion and smart home:
I also have an ioBroker instace with MQTT. I installed behind the regular double switch in the bathroom a Shelly in detached mode. So i get the information when the switch is pressed. The other switch is for the regular light. So i can switch the mirror on/of (MMM-Remote-Control) with the switch…and also the backlight goes on/off with a small effect.

When the PIR is starting -> MQTT-Message -> Knight rider effect starts for 10 Seconds. Just for fun and because its possible

Last but not least- when motion in the camera is detected- the videostream from MMM-Motioneye is displayed automatically for 1 minute (when i brush my teeth… i see before when the doorbell rings.

I hope you like it. Feel free to ask.

@Goldjunge_Chriz - Mmmh. okay. Not cheap at all. But its still fine for me, so i dont have to buy a new lamp for the mirror.

@roger-0 Dont forget pihole. But if youre using homebridge and piHole (everthing network related), i suggest LAN.

Its really annoying when you open Home in the iPhone and have “Aktualisierung” in red for 1-2 seconds. But givi it a try…!

@sdetweil said in Calendar Dates - Problematic behaviour since 2.18:

fullDayEventDateFormat

Thanks a lot, again @sdetweil .

fullDayEventDateFormat: 'D.MMMM',

did the job!

@goldjunge_chriz said in *NEW LIST 23.08.2020* Two way community order for mirror glass for all european countries - Open until at least 10 people have entered:

In the past, I went in advance with the payment in such cases, but unfortunately I was left sitting on the mirror and the money a few times (people have not contacted me at all or had no more money). And to sell a custom-made mirror with very special dimensions elsewhere is very difficult. Therefore, I no longer go with the payment in advance.

I would have done it in the same way.

Ich have found the answer by meyself.

npm install --no-optional
npm install typescript
npm install tsutils

I changed the default weatherforecast to weather like described in the official docu. It didnt load the forecast.
What can i change?

My config.js:

    {
      module: 'weather',
      position: 'top_right',
      header: 'Wetter Vorhersage für',
      config: {
		type: 'forecast',
        location: 'Bramfeld, Hamburg',
        locationID: '2945498',
        appid: '9401ca284xxxxxxxx48a208ac'
      }
    },

This seems to be the error:

@sdetweil My fault. The export from google calender is “plain text”. There is no mention of the real birthday.

So its solved. Thanks a lot.

@sdetweil I uncommented the first callender with slashes. Thats what im using before.
It looks like that “repeatingCountTitle” is not working in this case. I changed the toppic now for a better understanding.

Due security changes MMM-Googlebirthdays is no longer working, so a few Birthdays are missing.
So i switched to a local copy (export from Google) of my contact calendar.

Its woking fine, but how i can format it better?

Before it was:
XY, 30. Birthday D.MMMM

Now its like;
XY has Birthday D.MMMM

I just want to see, how old the people are.
Here my config:

		  {
//			url: 'http://192.168.178.80:8080/mmm-googlebirthdaysprovider',
			url: 'http://192.168.178.80:8080/modules/birthdays/birthdays.ics',
			repeatingCountTitle: 'Geburtstag',
			dateFormat: 'D.MMMM',
			symbol: 'birthday-cake',
			color: '#F5DA81'
 		  },

@Rags
Im uskng MMM-GooglebirthdayProvider. I alreday installed it and have the key for it. work fine.

Problem- Google disavled the old authentification.
https://github.com/PalatinCoder/MMM-GoogleBirthdaysProvider

Just in case…

@sdetweil Thanks for your info.
I assume that i have an working firmware. I dont have any clue which version this is.

@Egnos I have to add… i use also the Module https://github.com/olexs/MMM-UserPresenceToMQTT

For the LED-Strip… i use a WS2812. Its adessable an u can use it with 5V and it preconfigured in Hyperion.

@sdetweil I just use the Standard setting in my config.js.
Standard = use vgencmd

https://wiki.bugsounet.fr/en/EXT-Screen

@sdetweil I dont have any proble with CEC e.g…? Or do you just mistakenly quotet me…?

@Egnos Just in case…
Im using ioBroker @home (thats a free Smart Home Software). WIth that i also have installed MQTT. Any other Smart Home software like Home Assist can do the same.
I also installed Hyperion on the same Raspyberry i have installed MagicMirror. Inside ioBroker iam using the Hyperion adapter.
So with any “user_presence” i get the MQTT informartion… and that triggers a scipt inside ioBroker to activate Hyperion.

If your using any smart home software as well… this should be an easy thing. Feel free to ask…

@Stroke-0 No Problems here. Im using MMM-RemoteControl and a PI4. I also use MMM-NewPir to turn the Monitor off.
