Hey guys I’m pretty new to this whole magic mirror thing. I don’t want my mirror on all the time so I wanted to turn the display on and off with my voice. This is the only post I could find trying to accomplish that. So once i get the Voice Control module from alexyak working, how do I get this to work? I’m confused as to where to put the files.

@Hawking I actually eventually got it working. Thanks so much for all your help!

@Hawking Sorry to keep bothering you but I ended up making it work with the two commands you told me to do. Now my problem is when the Pi Zero W is booting it connects to the WiFi but when magic mirror boots the pi disconnects.

@Hawking My MagicMirror has been sitting for a long time. When I recently finished the frame to get the computer display and rpi zero out of my closet I booted the rpi zero and on the top of the display it said A New Version of Magic Mirror is available or something along those lines. So I went into the MagicMirror folder and used the command “git pull && npm install” as specified in the README file of MagicMirror.

@SebTota I went to my old image from before the update and thats still working fine, but when I updated it, it again had the error come up. The only difference is last time I did the update it said Error: Cannot find module ‘colors’

@Hawking
module.js:339
throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module ‘express’

and then the browser loads and says it cannot find http://localhost:8080

@Hawking I get an error saying that modules/color is missing or something like that. I’ve been working on it for 3 days but can’t get it to work.

Did anyone get this working on the Pi Zero or Pi Zero W after the new update?

@Mitchfarino Thanks for sharing my link!

Man I put the mirror in the closet for a little, came back to finally finish the frame and put it on the wall, updated it and more trouble. Oh gosh.

@Mar Not quite old enough to take you up on that offer yet. :) Really glad to hear that its working. Like I said if anyone needs the image of just the MagicMirror, MagicMirror with Alexa, and hopefully soon MagicMirror with Jasper AI just let me know and I can send you a link to my download.

@Mar I have shared it with someone else already and it worked completely fine. I have PM you the download link.

@Mar I’ll send you the link to the mega file download. You will have to unzip it and write the ISO file onto your SD card. I also have a version that has amazon Alexa built in but that takes a little bit of setup.

@Mar it is an install or Raspbian lite with magic mirror for RPI zero. There is some other alterations but not much. Would you like me to share the file?

@Mar do you have access to a 16gb SD card or no? If not what size do you have/want to use.

@Mar if you want I can share my image with you so all you have to do is download my image into your SD card

@Mar you can’t just copy and paste the drive. Download win32diskimager and read the SD card to a new .ISO file on your pc

@Mar I have tried myself with no success. Let me know if you figure it out.

@Mar if your running Jessie full you can SSH into the RPI and enable vnc

Did anyone get
