I’ve tried installing MM on windows 10, while I wait for my new raspberry.
I’ve been following these instructions: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/4089/complete-walkthrough-install-magicmirror-on-a-pc-windows-7-10

But when I want to start it I get this error:

$ DISPLAY=:0 npm start

@sdetweil Tried installing this module https://github.com/Thlb/MMM-synology-ds

I’m trying to install modules on windows - but I get the following error. I’ve installed python - but no change.
Any suggestions? :)

Here: (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6345/facial-recognition-module-step-by-step-guide)

I’ve gone through the set up, made a training.xml, and python facerecognition.py gives me me

Strong: User1

I’ve added the module in the config

modules: [
		{
	module: 'MMM-Facial-Recognition',
	config: {
		// 1=LBPH | 2=Fisher | 3=Eigen
		recognitionAlgorithm: 1,
		// Threshold for the confidence of a recognized face before it's considered a
		// positive match.  Confidence values below this threshold will be considered
		// a positive match because the lower the confidence value, or distance, the
		// more confident the algorithm is that the face was correctly detected.
		lbphThreshold: 50,
		fisherThreshold: 250,
		eigenThreshold: 3000,
		// force the use of a usb webcam on raspberry pi (on other platforms this is always true automatically)
		useUSBCam: true,
		// Path to your training xml
		trainingFile: 'modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml',
		// recognition intervall in seconds (smaller number = faster but CPU intens!)
		interval: 2,
		// Logout delay after last recognition so that a user does not get instantly logged out if he turns away from the mirror for a few seconds
		logoutDelay: 15,
		// Array with usernames (copy and paste from training script)
		// users: ['Andre'],
		//Module set used for strangers and if no user is detected
		defaultClass: "default",
		//Set of modules which should be shown for every user
		everyoneClass: "everyone",
		// Boolean to toggle welcomeMessage
		welcomeMessage: true
	}
},

And given different classes to the other modules. some just for me

classes: 'Andre',

and some for everyone

classes: "default everyone",

But the mirror doesn’t seem to see me, cause it only shows the modules that are set up for everyone.

Im following konradwalsh step by step guide.

In step 2

"
Make sure your training.xml from running train.py is in this directory - /MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools

specify the face recognition algorithm in the environment with

export FACE_ALGORITHM=1

specify your user labels in the environment with

export FACE_USERS=Alice,Bob,Casey,Doug

"

Where do I set these?

Thank you! That fixed it :)

This is the module I’m trying to add classes to

{
	module: 'MMM-YrThen',
	position: 'top_right',
	config: {
	location: '1-211102',
	}
	classes: 'default everyone',
},

When I try to add classes to the config files i get this error:

“Could not validate config file”.

I tried adding a class to just one module:

module: 'MMM-YrThen'
position: 'top_right'
classes: 'default everyone'

When I remove classes, the problem goes away, but then the mirror is just blank.
