SMART MIRROR | Spotify Setup 

After long time 😄😄.... please keep uploading videos about magic mirror...loved it ❤️

NO! I want the album cover how do I adjust it to the right size so it looks cool

Pls make a video on how to include RU-vid and uber as well . And how to control this apps via voice assistant

Please make a video to sync okay google in raspberry pi instead of alexa

Your videos are great. Really makes me want to mess around with a raspberry pi for the first time. Keep up the good work

You do great work. You could custom build and sell these. Interested?

Watching this on my smart mirror

Wow this guy is going places.

Could you make a video about how to connect alexa to spotify and the mirror

Dude I love all the stuff you do in your channel. Really useful!

Excellent and well narrated. Followed this and works perfectly. Thank you

Hey, I really enjoy your videos! Is it necessary to connect the whole thing to Alexa? Or will it always show the songs which I played on Spotify earlier on my phone, so that I just can start the tracks on it?

can this work with apple music? if so, could you please do a video on it?

Lol you set off my Alexa 😂 good video bro

YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND!

Great build, I love the frame!

Hey i did every Step you did exact the Same Way but it Just Shows a loading Symbol not the Song that is playing can you Tell me what to do thanks 😊

Hey Can we do this with google play music? if so how do you??

can you do a tutorial on how to install Alexa on the MM? PLs

Hey Greg how do we get this working with the Google Home Install is it basically the same exact steps

It would be interesting to see text messages notification added to it. Be very useful for people who spend a lot of time looking at the mirror 😄

Awesome tutorial, very straightforward!

This is tight... I heard about the raspberry pi looking for the led piano and it took me here afterwards

This is so cool. Will try my hands on it soon. Thanks.

This is too TECH for me. I'm not smart enough.😭🙌💕

Hi Everything is working fine except there is no audio output please help if you can Thanks.

You are so smart! This is briliant

LOVE YOU SO MUCH FINALLY 😭😭😭😭

God damn that's clean... Could you do a video showing how to mount the whole thing and hide the wires??

oh it looks sooo cool and modern

Hi there . I've pasted the code into config file . I have used google API for my smart mirror. But when I ask it to play spotify it does not work.

How did you link Spotify to Alexa (or visa versa)? I've tried setting up the MagicMirror as a device in the Android Alexa app... It says the device is offline but apparently (according to Google) that's just the way it is. When I try to get Alexa to play music it says: "Sorry, music and playback are not supported on this device." Any ideas? Thanks.

how???? i literally had so much trouble in intro to comsci and this man literally out here building magic ass mirrors wtffff

Dude! Love your vids. Thanks for sharing. I might be building of of these soon. Smashed the sub button!

well, Probably the easiest video i have followed to date ! Thank you ! its running perfect, the cool thing is if i play from my pixel phone it shows that on the bottom and if i play it from a google home mini it then shows what GHM im playing from ! nice ! the only thing im not liking is if im away from home ( work ) and playing on spotify it still shows on the screen.. wonder if there is a way to disable if not on the same LAN. 1 Request as your background is very techinal, we have a NEST smoke/carbon dector.. is there a way to show the currect status of it.. ( everything is ok ) kind of message, this way i dont have to keep checking the NEST APP. anyway, great videos and im a follower ! next project is to see if i can get Google Assistant running on top of an active MM or does it have to be loaded frst ! only reason i have countless hours invested in the MM with regards to our home garbage and recycle and leaf pickup dates and a few other things... if your intrested shoot me a line.

Beautiful Project, Is there any list of components of this work?

Do you use a built-in Alexa (with a microphone plugged into your raspberry) or you are actually using the Alex device? I try to start a song by using the MMM-Google-Assistant module but it doesn't seems possible to do ..

Dude your webbsite is very broken like I want to make the smart mirror but im just stuck at the smart mirror page! Can you fix it or something?

I can't install this module anymore :/ .. it looks like github changed some stuff

Hello Friend. You could do a tutorial, how to install the Alexa voice service?

keep uploading videos bro

In a previous video it appeared the voice activation was through the mirror, here you can see the echo dot in the counter. Can you confirm this is just for displaying your current songs? That’s how I’ve had it set up. Thanks again for your videos. They’re great. I have a pretty developed mirror in large part because of your videos showing it’s possible for regular people.

hi my friend! why i config then error not using "ok google" but play spotify on my phone then screen on but mute :( help me pls!

As someone with no raspberry pi experience at all, I really want to build this! I’ve checked out your other videos and I’m still a little lost. Maybe a slower paced video? Either way, thanks for the direction.

Video is a little misleading. For anyone wondering he is not running Alexa or Spotify through the mirror he is just setting up a module that shows what is playing on his spotify. The audio you hear is not coming from the mirror its coming from an amazon echo.

I make the instalation work perfect thank you

Is there a way for Apple Music to work ?

Damn man! This was long awaited and great video btw! Can you upload a GitHub of a zip file with all the setup already done, but with **** (star sign) where your information would be? That would make this so much easier! Thanks again!

Hey Grensom, I really appreciate what you're doing man. keep it up :) Question: how do you do this without using echo? how can you run spotify from the raspberry by giving alexa commands?

How to get both Alexa and the google assistant on the magic mirror? I know we cannot get the google home features with the magic mirror because it is only the API so can we get the okay google feature and can see the text for the conversation. Please tell us if there is a method for that. Thank you.

Possible to do this but with Apple Music?

Do you plan on releasing an integration with Alexa tutorial?

Awesome build👌✌️

How do you remotely control the monitor from ur computer? Just getting started with this stuff.

Is that dot connected to the Mirror in some way or does it just happen to be near it physically? It looks like the mm is just displaying what the spotify acct is playing to what device. Seems more novel than functional.

How do I stop the progress bar size changing every time it goes to the next song? The showCoverArt is false

Hey I see where someone else asked about the tutorial on adding Alexa to your smart mirror, I have a similar question. Did you use 2 separate raspberry pi’s on your mirror with Alexa integrated? In other words did you have one pi running AlexaPi and a second pi running magic mirror. If so were they connected in any way or 2 completely stand alone units housed in the same mirror?

i have a bose soundtouch. How can I play songs from the smart mirror on the sound touch ?

A hero

If I have the Google voice kit I can still set it up all like you right ?

thanks, newbie here and work perfect thanks....

cool build man was waiting for this.. when will you show us how to add alexa to it?

So do I still need to do this if already installed the Alexa info I get from.the Amazon website?

Also works with Google Home mini or just Amazon Alexa?

Do you have just an echo dot in the Mirror for Alexa or is Alexa running on the pi

Screen only showing the Spotify Emblem and loading but nothing happening. Any solution? Thanks in advance.

You are using Alexa . How you installed it ? And if i want to use google assistant how can i do it ?

You using the dot or the voice command on the pi? If you are using the dot, do you have any documentation on how you integrated this? Or another video?

It seemed very straightforward. However, although I followed the instructions step by step, the mirror's Google Assistant replies with "Hey, you need to enter your Spotify credentials in the config file first"". When I use the Google Assistant on my mobile, it works and shows the cover image on my mirror. What am I doing wrong?

It works! Thankyou so much for your clear explanations. I have one question though, I haven't installed alexa yet, but still I want to listen music on my smartmirror. So I pick a song from my pc/mobile, it starts playing from the pc/mobile, but I can't listen trough my mirror, there is no possibility to listen from it the mirror itself. How can I fix this ?

Thank you for all the videos about the smart mirror, you are awesome! How do you conect the bluetooth speaker?I have some troubles with the audio output and i can't find solutions...

How were you able to edit the mirror from your own computer instead of using the raspberry everytime?

do you think there is a method to make the Serie A football ranking appear on the screen?

Hello Grensom good afternoon, first of all I would like to express my respect and admiration for the projects you have done, such as the smart blind or the magic mirror. I comment I'm Alejandro Guarderas, a student at Ecotec University, in Ecuador - Guayaquil. And I want to start my degree thesis, implementing the project of the intelligent mirror, but first I would like to know if you have a space to have your advice. I remain attentive to your kind response. Happy Holidays!!. Thank you.

is the Alexa from an Alexa speaker or integrated into the mirror

Wait, so the magic mirror (e.g., mmm-awesome-alexa) doesn’t really play Spotify? The MM will show the current song but You still need a separate dedicated echo to play Spotify?

This is so awesome! I’m assuming that this works too with the Google Assistant?

Hey! Great Video! I have a question. I cannot get the music to play on my Magic Mirror, and I don't see an option to do that from my Spotify app. I am using a Raspberry Pi 3 connected via HDMI with a Bluetooth dongle that connects to my iPhone right away. I can see the song playing on my Magic Mirror but the audio playback is on my iPhone. Any ideas?!!!

Wow - great job. Will watch the rest of the video (haven't yet), but didn't immediately see an infrared sensor for detecting motion and putting the monitor to sleep / waking upon motion. Did you do anything like that?

Great Job dude 👍

i want to first play music on my phone/pc then transfer it to magic mirror using my spotify...... how can i do that???? i followed you guide but couldn't do that

how do you play spotify on mm without alexa or google, doesnt show up as a speaker?

Thanks for the video but I still cannot play music. Can you tell us how to configure it with alexa

is there a way to make the spotify app pop up? so i can search for songs and choose playlists and such? same with an internet browser so i could watch youtube videos? I was thinking of maybe installing android on it and using it the same way as a tablet, but i dont know if thats a good idea.

My Spotify Widget always shows a Spotify Icon in the Backround any Idea how i can get rid of it?

how much would it cost for you to make one for me I want to buy one.

Basically my local host refuses to connect what do I do? I need to authorize my app buh I csnt as it wont connect

Is there a way to connect it to iTunes?? Or Siri on a specific phone?

Can you do this with a google home? If you don’t have a echo

yo grensom do you need a premium account for this bc i have it already but i dont have a premium acc

Hi Thanks for the tutorial, it helped me a lot, I'm having a problem, no sound come from the module. the others modules work well, but this no you can help me please?

hey boss localhost:8888 is not working is there any other way to do this plz let me know

Hey Grensom! This is a great project, I followed all your smart mirror videos and it inspired me to build my own smart mirror...which is pretty much done. I have, however hit a bit of a snag...I've installed everything on my raspi correctly (and more times than I like to think about) and a bunch of different modules in addition. But my NowPlayingOnSpotify module will not play music over the onboard speakers. Mind helping out? Thanks, Brad

This is amazing thank you. This is just me being picky but does anyone know if it possible to set the cover art to a different position than the track information on the magic mirror screen. Maybe with 2 modules, 1 with the artwork hidden and one not? The reason i ask is that i have my mirror in portrait mode and i like to have the track bar for the current playing song across the bottom_bar section of the screen but the cover art then scratches to over most of the mirror. if i set the now playing module to bottom_left the cover art is then a nice size but the track bar is shortened. Its not a big thing im just curious :)

dude ur a genius

could u play music from your iphone on the spotify app and display it on the mirror?

Do you will be able to do it with apple music?

but where does the alexa communication comes from like how do you display stuff from the alexa to the screen

also can you know if you can do this with soundcloud?

I was able to follow along until around 3:23. I successfully finished step 2 and also copied the code and moved the folder as well but it isnt showing when I reboot
