MagicMirror does not start in full screen

[drx1984]

@sdetweil
Good morning,
So even if I set physical landscape format and restart the system, the MagicMirror doesn’t appear in full screen >> look at the photo I took on my cell phone without Anydesk access.

And I uploaded a video clip to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjiYQ21SoKI

And I entered the entry with: electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy}:

Where else can the problem be?
Thanks for your help.

@drx1984 in the electronOptions add at the end

,fullScreen:true

note the leading comma, as this will be after the height:1080

[drx1984]

@sdetweil Is that what you mean>> electronOptions:{width:1920, height:1080, fullScreen:true}, ?

unfortunately nothing came of it

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 yes…

what OS is this

show results of

lsb_release -a
uname -a

also, stop MagicMirror and then delete the .config for Electron as before

then restart MagicMirror

@sdetweil Unfortunately I have to leave now sry, I’ll get back to you tomorrow.
There is an Ubuntu 22.04.4 installed on an IntelNuc.

I have another YouTube video >you can see how it is briefly in full screen at the start and then the full screen goes away again. Watch the video clip until the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fRf2pJuET8

thanks

@drx1984 ok, how are u launching mm?

show results of

pm2 status

@sdetweil
Good morning, MagicMirror actually starts when I restart, but I can also start MagicMirror in the terminal with pm2 start.

If I start the MagicMirror myself via the terminal, everything is displayed in full screen, but not when I reboot.

I installed MagicMirror with this script: bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”

Everything works, except the full screen doesn’t work when IntelNuc is restarted.

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 thats my install script

so, lets create the pm2 entry

pm2 stop all
pm2 delete 0
pm2 save -f
# run script from my list to setup pm2
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)"

@sdetweil I just tried, unfortunately still no full screen after restarting.

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 hm…

can you do

pm2 info 0 >somefile.txt

and send me the somefile.txt at my same userid on gmail

[drx1984]

@sdetweil OK, I created it. what is your email address?
or can I post it here too?

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 don’t post here, too much stuff

I gave you my email

my same userid on gmail

I protect myself against scrapers looking for email

[drx1984]

@sdetweil OK, all right, I just sent you the file

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 ok, don’t see it yet

[drx1984]

@sdetweil hmm, so I understood you correctly, your email address is “username” from this forum and ....@gmail.com >correct?
Or check your spam folder?

[sdetweil]

@drx1984 correct

[drx1984]
