Does Raspberry Pi 3 have the horsepower to do opacity transitions?
-
I am doing a fullscreen image transition between two images by fading one of them out to reveal the next one for a slideshow module. Unfortunately, it only updates about a couple times a second. My raspberry pi is passively cooled. Is there just not the horsepower to achieve a good transition?

@magicinme which pi? maybe pi4…
I have updated the MMM-ImagesPhotos module to do opacity transitions and also blurring around the edges.
its not always in sync, and sometimes the blurred background drowns out everything else…(cpu wise)I see the same glitches on my i7-2600k linux desktop
electron doesn’t use the gpui also have a jetson nano (arm64) and odroid (arm7 like pi) , both faster than 4, but still show the glitches.
I’ve spent about a year working on different changes to improve the performance, and while I’ve got significant improvement
blur kills it (but I like it!)
