Black Screen Of Death After Couple of Hours
-
then it’s no server problem, no idea why the client crashes. Is this new with mm version v2.18.0 (because it contains new electron version)?
-
@karsten13 if they are running client, then not electron
-
now I’m totally lost. He is running mm
server onlyon his synology and he postet client errors related to electron … -
@karsten13 unless he is running mm client on the other machine, vs running chrome to the server
-
@sdetweil and @karsten13
I am running the client on a Raspberry Pi. There I do get the electron errors and the screen goes black.
I think it might be in correlation with 2.18.0 of mm or with updating the containers with watchtower?! -
@codac can you open a browser on the pi and connect to mm server, full screen no title bar
-
@sdetweil
Well by default the pi bootens up and MagicMirror shows in full screen mode until the screen goes black again after a couple of hours.
But I havent started a browser in full screen mode manually yet. -
@codac right but u can do the start browser instead of start mm client.
just a way to test in the short term… if it stays running or not
if you use chromium u can get the command line from my run-start.sh script I use when electron is not available.

I think the client crashes when you update the container image because updating the container means it will be restarted.
