So i’m at the point in the set pu where it’s saying “Getting response from Amazon…”, but it’s been going for like 30 mins. Any ideas on how long this should take, or did i probably make a mistake above?
Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.

RE: MMM-Awesome-Alexa & MMM-Scoreboard
Just curious if anyone has had a chance to look into this… I’m looking at other mods to work around it, but they just don’t seem as good as this one (you know that moment when you find something perfect).

RE: towel.blinkenlights.nl on your Magic Mirror
So I do realize this is telnet too, the security issue is definitely there. This may not be practical, and I understand that. I guess it just rushed to a suggestion.

towel.blinkenlights.nl on your Magic Mirror
So I hate requesting mods becuase frankely i’m not smart enough to make them myself, and I hate asking other people to do things, but I actually wonder if anyone could do this (only if there’s interest from other people). I’m taking a MTA networking cert course and I was lead to this telnet exercise. basically you enable telnet on windows and goto telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl in the Command prompt window (I do understand you all already know this and have probably seen it, also i disable telnet immediately afterwards). Anyways it shows you a star wars movie made in text. I find it fascinating. I see it’s also available for Linux. Would it be possible to incorporate something like this into the MagicMirror?
To be honest I think it’s so cool, if it’s not possible, I’m half tempted to run another RPI3 with another screen behind mymirror and just let this run, but it’d be cool to see it in the corner of the mirror just playing a movie.

RE: MMM-Awesome-Alexa & MMM-Scoreboard
I’ll be honest, I haven’t gotten to test it yet, but it should be the name you made up as you were making your Amazon Dev AVS. Like I used MagicMirror_2.

MMM-Awesome-Alexa & MMM-Scoreboard
I finally got MMM-Awesome-Alexa to work… FYI anyone that needs help should use the following link: Best MMM-Awesome-Alexa Walkthrough
However I was using MMM-Scoreboard to go with it. Now since i got the alexa installed MMM-scoreboard now lists the recent scores horizontally across the screen instead of vertical as it did before. It basically messes up the formatting of the display. Any idea why this happens, and how to fix it? or are just some of the mods not compatible together?

@dazza120 Thanks I’ll give this a go.

Issues with MM freezing and RPI3 running Hot
I’m having issues with the RPI3 freezing maybe once or twice a week. It’ll mostly do it at night (typically shortly after I go to bed according to where my clock stops), and when I wake up the RPI3 will be kind of hot. I have heatsinks on it, and i’m not sure where to go from here. I’m concerned because it’s in a clear case that came with it, but it’s not even actually in a mirror yet. I still have it running on the table attached to a Monitor. I’m trying to get MMM-Awesome-Alexa to work (and still need my Mic/Speakers) before I’m wanting to make it into a mirror and pay for the mirror.

RE: Help with MMM-awsome-alexa
@ElayHadad I’m having issues as well, but this seems to be the best guide I’ve seen so far. I’m still working on mine, and it’s definitely a process (i’m slowed by family, school, and work).
How-To Geek: How to Add Alexa to Your Smart Mirror
It’d be awesome to have a youtube video guide on this, but I’m thinking part of the issues is the process has changed due to some issues with amazon dev process. If i get it working, i’ll let you know, how and what I did. But I’m still needing to get a mic & speaker in.
