        Thanks for your time @sdetweil :)

        I will first try docker container from link you posted before. One of scenario is about:

        Scenario 2: Using docker on the raspberry pi and starting the magicmirror on the screen of the pi.
        

        I will post results back.

            @lpt2007 yeh, its a tricky, not really supported approach
            I personally wouldn’t even try it

              Maybe the problem is host os, not a container?

                Problem is host os. I downloaded latest raspbian buster image and followed guide from the link. Works like charm in docker container and display picture to host hdmi.

                  @lpt2007 now, if you go back to the 1st docker image, and then open a browser on the host connecting to

                  http://docker_container_ip:exposed_port
                  

                  you will get the same results…
