Hi,

Is it possible to get a news feed to shows news from your favourite TV shows instead of general news sites?

Apologies I don’t speak the language so I don’t understand it unfortunately but I did a capital R and got the following:

chown: invalid option – ‘r’
Try ‘chown --help’ for more information.

I tried the above as suggested but get this error now:

chown: invalid option – ‘r’
Try ‘chown --help’ for more information.

@sdetweil thank you will try this.

Hi,

My mirror is saying it needs an update but I get the following when I follow instructions to do so. Also, will the update take away all my modifications?

@hango Thanks so much, that is what I was missing :)

@sdetweil Sorry for late reply. I literally just added a new quote under what was there but I’m guessing there is code somewhere else that I need to adjust in order to add those extra lines?

Hey,

So I want to be able lots of compliments on my mirror, is this possible? I have changed the existing ones but when I add more the module doesn’t work. Thanks.

I have got it working, thanks :)

Hi,

@Fozi Thanks very much, your mirror is very impressive. Will look at your guide for other help too 😁

@sdetweil thank you for the suggestion, great idea and simple 👍

Just wondering how everyone has their mirror setup with hiding wires with the pi and Monitor having power cables.

Thank you all very much for the advice and tips, I have learned some new things already. One last question I hope, regarding the monitor, I read somewhere about using a touch screen monitor, is it better to use touch screen or no?

Thank you so much for all that advice, I really appreciate it :)

Hello,

I am a complete newbie to Raspberry Pi and Magic Mirror. I have decided to build a Smart Mirror and just lookingi for any tips or advice on what to do or not to do. I have ordered the Raspberry Pi 4 Starter Kit. Is touch screen better or not for this? Any advice is much appreciated :)
Thanks, Lula
