@jrotondo I use the fitbit app (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6/mmm-fitbit) to track some metrics. I couldn’t get anything as fancy as the above mirror working so I went with the traditional youtube video being played on my mirror which has the same effect.
Alternatively Google fit has a module as well (https://github.com/amcolash/MMM-GoogleFit)
This doesn’t directly answer your question, but with some clever thinking you can for sure get your mirror to be similar to the qaio
@spooke I recently ran into a similar issue. I used a french cleat on the back of my frame. That stuck out just enough to make the frame and the monitor roughly stick out the same distance so the mirror was flat when I hung it.
@orayoflighto Appreciate it! I was able to get my mirror hung up in the end with very tiny (yet amazingly sturdy) wall tacks. Was helpful going through the other options though
@Charley The issue is that i’m only renting and it’s in my lease to not make any holes in the walls. I have a concrete drill bit so I may end up just doing that anyways if I can’t come up with another solution.
Hey all,
So I recently moved and my new apartment has all concrete walls. I cant drill into the walls to hang up my mirror so I wanted to ask here if anyone has any other ideas for a way to display my mirror? It weighs a solid 30lbs or so, so I was thinking of using an art easel perhaps?
Thanks in advance!
@austenzombie7 I’ve set up a RetroPi but only using Jessie so I couldn’t help with Stretch. Maybe give RecalBox a look too as it is very very similar to RetroPi
I agree with the PI 3. I’ve built a mirror using the PI 3 and the new(er) Pi 0 and it was night and day easier with the PI 3. It’ll of course cost you more up front and its a little bigger but its more powerful and easier to use ‘out of the box’
@j.e.f.f Sorry for the delay. My config is just the simple:
{
module: 'MMM-MyWastePickup',
position: 'top_left',
header: 'My Waste Collection',
config: {
collectionCalendar: 'Tuesday2'
}
},
I’ll do a pull once I get back home and let you know if it works. Thanks for looking at this!
I just moved to Toronto so I am trying out this module and so far it works great except one kink. The icons are never on the right hand side of the module so they always overlap the text on the left hand side. I’ve checked everything I can think of (made sure the module has plenty of space, checked the code, reinstalled, etc) but I still cant get it to properly fill its container. Has anyone run into this before?
