RE: What's the technology used in magic mirror
The Operating System is linux.
MagicMirror is just an application that runs on linux.
The application itself is electron, which It’s basically just a web browser.
So, when you look at your mirror, you are just looking at a webpage with a bunch of components.
Those components are written in JavaScript. -
RE: Every time I run an update, something breaks. This time is no exception
@sdetweil What I kept trying to do is get node and npm updated, but I royally screwed things up where nothing is working anymore. I can’t use the PM2 command to start and stop things or see the status. So, I just nuked the SD card and am starting from scratch. I will use your scripts.

What's the best TV to use?
If you were to build a magic mirror from scratch, what display technology would you pick? My MagicMirror is running on an old LCD TV with a two way mirror in front of it and the glare make it almost unreadable during the day.
If I were to rebuild it, what kind of a TV should I use to make it easier to read during the day?

RE: Calendar Module not working with Google Calendar
@sdetweil That did it. Thank you so much. I spent two hours this morning trying to fix this.
How did you know that this was an issue? I need to get better at learning how to troubleshoot this mirror myself. -
RE: Calendar Module not working with Google Calendar
@sdetweil ok, that makes sense.
My issue is really strange where my two recurring weekly events only show up during the first two weeks of the month, and are ignored the rest of the time until the next month. I even tested installed thunderbird to open the ICS file to check that the issue isn’t with google calendar. Thunderbird displays the recurring events just fine.
It’s making me think if I should hack together some kind a pre-processor to only return events that are relevant to the view.

RE: Calendar Module not working with Google Calendar
@sdetweil, would you mind sharing how you set up a filter for the events? I have a suspicion that too many events are causing some items to now show up on calendar.

What's the brightest possible TV I can get?
My current MagicMirror is an old 40" LCD TV. It’s positioned in area that get a lot of light and is quite hard to read. I am considering rebuilding it with something might brighter. What TV would recommend? Something around 55" would be fantastic.

RE: MMM-CalendarExt3 stopped working
@sdetweil while messing with raspi-config over ssh, magicmirror lost connection to my wifi. I had to connect a keyboard and reconnect. But, before going back to your last suggestion I did two other things. I updated pm2 (as suggested by some other post). And in the browser console I noticed that I had an error about not being able to locate “CX3_shared.mjs”. I checked the MMM-CalendarExt3 repo, and found that file CX3_Shared/CX3_shared.mjs, which for some reason wasn’t getting pulled by a git pull. I manually copied it in, and the calendar sort of started working.
I should have paid better attention to the documentation, because I would have seen that I needed to run
git submodule update --init --recursive
to update the submodule.The reason I say “sort of” is because my family calendar doesn’t show some repeating events, but I need to dig deeper into that.
I really appreciate all your help.
