Hi there! I just posted a PR to you on github, adding the “passed” text via the config. And also let the “toWhat” event to still be shown when the event has passed (makes more sense i think if you use the “passed” text.) :)

Description:

A simple module to add a background picture to the selected profile. This module works well with the MMM-ProfileSwitcher module. Set the URL to the users picture, then set the class for each user on each instans of the module in your config.

Version 0.1

• Initial version.

Bonus for anyone who wounder why I wanted to do this…

I’m a user of “Alexa” (Amazons Echo Dot). I have 6 dots in my house. I wanted to be able to interact with the mirror with Alexa. And, yes I know there are lot’s of modules and stuff out there for this. But I have tried and not been satisfied with different modules/solutions that I found.

Now, It happens I already use a small software called “HA-Bridge” for controlling all kind of things using Alexa (for example all my lights via Z-Wave using a Fibaro HC2 controller). So this software can be configured to “visit” URL:s when called up on with a voice command though Alexa (in reality HA emulates a Philips HUE light that Alexa can “find” under “Smart House”, that give 3 different commands: On, off and dim.). This opens up a sea of opportunities as you can imagine. :)

So, now I say: “Alexa, turn on Snilles Mirror” to view my profile. (Switches to my profile)
Or: “Alexa, turn off Mirror Screen.” (Monitor off)
Or: “Alexa, turn off Mirror” (Shutdown the mirror)
And so on…
Yes… Imagine the possibilities. :)

@Jopyth said in Activate Profiles (via MMM-ProfileSwitcher) using MMM-Remote-Control...:

%22Snille%22

Oh! Works! :) I can’t believe that I did not try that… Thank you! :)

@mortenbirkelund {“status”:“Unexpected token P in JSON at position 1”}

Tried that… :)

Hi all,
I’m trying to switch profiles with the MMM-Remote-Control module via notifications to the MMM-ProfileSwitcher module.
But I can’t get it to work. I do get the MMM-ProfileSwitcher to “switch” but only to a profile called [object Object].
My profile in this case is called “Snille”.
The Profile Switcher work otherwise with the MMM-Touch-Navigation module, so it’s not broken otherwise. :)

Iv’e tried with the following URL (and variants of that):
http://MagicMirorIP:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload={“Profile”:“Snille”}
As long as the “json” is ok at the end I get the “Switched to profile [object Object]” on the mirror. But, of course I don’t have any “[object Object]” profile. :)
I do get a: {“status”:“success”} from the MMM-Remote-Control as well (as long as the “json” string is ok as well).
Anybody have any idea? :)

@cowboysdude Actually it was quite fast only 8 days! :)

@cowboysdude Hehe, I’m still waiting for my mirror. Have not yet tested with any glass, just have it leaned against the monitor right now. :) I hope my work can supply a Pilkington MirrorView mirror, if not that’s what I’m going to buy.

@cowboysdude I bought this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32-points-32-Inch-IR-Multi-touch-overlay-kit-without-glass-for-Interactive-Table-Multi-Touch/1195149819.html
And I can actually “zoom” the on the mirror (in the electron browser) which means that multitouch works (at least for two points). :)

@cowboysdude It worked when added to a sh script! Good call! :) Before I just tested with the xinput command directly in the autostart file, but that did not work. So now instead I just created a script called xin.sh.
nano ~/xin.sh
Then added
DISPLAY=:0.0 xinput --set-prop "Multi touch Multi touch overlay device" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1
There should actually be 3 spaces between “Multi touch” and “Multi touch overlay device”. For some reason the board removes the extra spaces here.

You can actually find the “name” of the device with this command DISPLAY=:0.0 xinput list
Shows something like this:

⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Multi touch Multi touch overlay device id=6 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]

Depending on what you have connected to your RPi. :)

So, after creating the xin.sh I added that to the autostart file for LXDE:
Like this:
nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
Added at the end of the file.
@/home/pi/xin.sh
Restarted and it works. :)
