    • RE: MMM-MotionEye - surveillance video stream on your mirror!

      @Cato
      I really want to use the AutoHide feature. But the stream is fixed and always displayed. Is there any possibility…?

      	{
      		module: "MMM-MotionEye",
      		position: "bottom_left",
      		config: {
      			url: "http://pihole:8081",
      			autoHide: true,
      			autoHideDelay: "10000",
      			forcedRefreshInterval: 60000,
      			width: "400px",
      			debug: false
      				}
      	},

      @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.

    • RE: My Kitchencabinet Mirror

      @foxy25 No, not stupid.
      This was just a hint. Nothing more.
      But thry a relay ;) then you can really make it powerless without the gosund.

      Like you told us. Your friend is a carpenter. He uses a Festool! Very nice. And also how he cut out the piece including the corners.

      If you have some rest of the yellow wall color in you cellar… dig in the platering, put in the cable from the outlet, put cement on it, sand it and paint it. No one sees the extra wire. Just a hint, its your house! I would have do it in that way. It think its worth the time.

    • RE: Where to buy mirror glass?

      @frank_pi When the Mirrors are shipped, i have Mirropane Chrome Spy 4mm (0,74m * 0,65m).

      The mirror has a godd transparency but looks a bit like copper, not silver.

    • RE: My Kitchencabinet Mirror

      @foxy25 What do you switch on/off with the Gosund? The monitor?

      Maybe you can get rid of the extra device. 2 Solutions in my opinion:

      1. Use relays and control it via the pi4 directly - https://tutorials-raspberrypi.de/raspberry-pi-relais-schalter-steuern/
      2. Try to use vcgencmd display_power 0 and vcgencmd display_power 1, i think this will work (or maybe echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/bl_power)

      There a various ways to turn off the RPI displays. See here:

    • RE: My Kitchencabinet Mirror

      @foxy25 How are your temperatures? I had to add a “special” encasing for the PI. About 14 Euros at Amazon.

      One hint (mybe its useful for you: I changed soe code inside the “MMM-WiFiPassword” module. It was a bit annoying that below the QR-Code was still “Network” hardcoded.
      I changed the text in “MMM-WiFiPassword.js”, row 76 to

      networkNameDiv.innerHTML = "<b>WLAN:</b> " + this.config.network;
      

      looks nicer.

      MMM-Globe for the animated background image.

      Thanks for the info about your used modules.
      I have also the PI4 but MMM-globe stops working within 25% of memory.

      Somehow with the time the RAM is fulling up by itself. Have no idea why. I also use pages and indicator.

    • RE: Homebridge and MM?

      @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…!

    • RE: Mirror boot time

      @pddh I forgot to mention- i have a double switch installed. One for the bathroom lights and the other for the mirror light. So i can use the mirror light easily for the MM.

      Later on i will break thru the wall and make a socket behind the mirror. So i have constant 220v and the Alexa behind the mirror will have always power.

      I power off the rpi and monitor fully over night for saving some energy and daily fresh reboot.

    • RE: Scheduling a blackscreen?

      When u use a RPI… use a relay for power if nothing helps. So you can set the time like described.

      2nd possibility - use a Tasmota device and define rules.

    • RE: Mirror boot time

      @pddh I have my MM in the bathroom.
      Actual solution - change the wiring (a bit)
      I already use ioBroker for some SmartHome magic.

      So i installed a shelly to catch the switch and set the shelly to detaced. With this- i can activate/deactive the power only with the shelly-app, ioBroker, Alexa e.g. So i have power the whole time behind my Mirror like i want an no one can turn off the power accidently. Oh- i fogot to mention… i have a double switch installed. One for the regular light and one for the power behind the mirror.

      2nd step- I have MQTT-service installed on the RPI (found the script online). WIth the “vcgencmd” you can turn off/ on the monitor signal to save some power, when not needed. Man PIR-Modules do the same.

      3rd step- let ioBroker (is the MQTT broker in this case) set the MQTT Mesasage - “Montitor on” e.g… when the switch is pressed on. And “monitor off” when the switch is off.

      So now you have a fully running MM and when someone is pressing the switch (or using the iphone-Home app, or using Alexa or or or…) the the MQTT state is set to “Monitor on” and the RPI (which has subsrcibed on that channel) is seeing the “Monitor on” command and starts “vcgencmd_1”.

      So the Monitor ist switched off.

      If you dont have any Smart Home Handler… You can have the MQTT-Broker on the RPI instead and when you use Tasmota you can configure Tasmota to communicate directly. So no need for ioBroker.

      I hope you can follow my “instructions”.

    • NPM audit fix eg

      Hi,

      im currently installing some modules. Somehow, very often its shown:

      found 5 vulnerabilities (1 low, 1 moderate, 3 high)
        run `npm audit fix` to fix them, or `npm audit` for detail
      

      The MM is not accessible from outside… should i run “npm audit fix” every time or is that not neccesary?

      @lavolp3
      When i add this code to the config.js the whole MagicMirror turn black.

      		{
      			module: 'MMM-Celebrations',
      			position: 'top_left',	// This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
      			header: 'Heute ist:', // This is optional
      				config: {
      					// You don't need any configuration options currently}
      				}
      		},
      

      Pretty strange. Any ideas?
