      Good afternoon

      First , thanks to the all of you for this excellent project and community .

      I’ve been working on my MagicMIrror so i can make a gift for a friend …

      And everything went smoothly until this road block …

      I wanted to install MMM-EasyBack so i can i have a background…

      and it just can’t make it work. Nothing is displayed …i have tried an image, a video…nothing

      I have read and follow the installation file and make everything i should do …

      until this part:

      "Fix for use with Chromium Browser
      Thanks to sdetweil and Darkmx-6
      I edited the file chromium_start.sh found here:

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls
      chromium_start.sh MagicMirror mmstart.sh node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l package-lock.json
      and added
      –autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required

      Example:

      GNU nano 3.2 chromium_start.sh

      #!/bin/sh
      unclutter &
      xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features.
      xset s off # disable screen saver
      xset s noblank # don’t blank the video device
      matchbox-window-manager &
      #midori -e Fullscreen -a http://localhost:8080
      chromium-browser --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required --incognito --kiosk http://localhost:8080/"

      i just cannot edit the chromium_start_sh file …because i cant find it …

      Is there anyone that can help me please.

      THanks

      Best Regards

        before u go down that path,

        open the developers window ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard, then select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors.

        you shouldn’t need to run the chromium browser.

        did u try the default backgrounds?
