I certainly didn’t expect such a comprehensive reply from anyone form my Hi post.

Thankyou very much indeed.

Evening all.
So glad I found this forum as it certainly looks a well balanced site.

Done some basic bits and bobs with my Pi’s to date but first real project is going to be a Magic Mirror.
I have an old monitor on its way to mess around with before going up in size for the real thing.

I’m looking to do the usual stuff to start with but reckon on some of the following modifications over time.

1. Automatic timed shutdown and boot up (no point it being on at night when nobody is there to benefit).
2. motion sensor to activate display.
3. small LEDs on back of frame that change with certain outside temperature changes.
4. map display of selected mobile devices by clicking a button on another device (eg if I want to see where my kids mobiles are, click a button on mine and a map would appear in the mirror with their location)

I’m sure some of these have already been done but looking forward to them none the less.

Go safe.
