      can i run two versions of Magic Mirror on a Pi4. I want to create two monitors that will be on the same wall and since the Pi 4 has two HDMI out ports. I would like to use one Pi to display different pictures on each monitor.

      Thanks for any guidance. Tim

        @TimGV it depends on the configuration options for the two HDMI outputs…

        if they are always one big screen (xwindows DISPLAY=:0) then you will have to se the size/location of each MM config to position the output on each display, instead of across the single view space

        if they can be configured as individual (DISPLAY=:0 AND DISPLAY=:1) then you just need to adjust the startup script (installers/mm.sh) to select the DISPLAY value
