Euh thanks for picture but didn’t you forget to share the cookbook of it ? :wink:

Okay here it comes.

First of all you nee to create the physical MagicMirror itself.
There are lots of video’s and other information how to do this, for example https://www.electronicproducts.com/Board_Level_Products/Single_Board_Computer/How_to_make_a_magic_mirror_with_a_Raspberry_Pi_and_an_old_monitor.aspx

The MagicMirror project is based on a RPi with the MagicMirror software installed on it, the is even a HA integration to the MagicMirror, but if find this is rather limited.

So I took my magic mirror, disabled the magic mirror software and started my custom created Lovelace interface for the magicmirror and start the web interface at boot in kiosk mode pointing to my Lovelace dashboard.

See below the dashboard itself:

Any question, just ask…

How do you do this?

Ok I’m guessing you use that for kiosk mode but what about?

You can also use this:

Hi,

I tried this too, but I keep getting a logon screen for HA in the iframe.

How did you avoid this?

My Magic Mirror is running a separate RPi

Thanks,
Rien

Hallo Sebastian, bin total begeistert von deinem Dashboard. MagicMirror bereitet mir keine Probleme, allerdings bin ich noch ein home Assistant anfänger, darf ich fragen welche temp und feuchtigkeits sensoren du verwendest? grüsse, dennis

Servus,
Ich habe als Heizsystem das System von Tado wo genau die Sensoren mit dabei sind. Zusätzlich haben aber bei mir auch der Dyson Air Purifier und die Bewegungssensoren von HUE Temperatur Sensoren. Ich habe sie entsprechend an unterschiedlichen Orten auch im Wohn-/Esszimmer aufgestellt und damit eine quasi bessere Ausleuchtung der Temperatur bekommen.

Hey, I had only once to authenticate and then mark up the question with yes if I want to be logged in. And it works for me…
