    Hi all,

    I’ve been running MM on a laptop (Debian desktop) directly attached to a monitor (via HDMI) for years and have it in portrait mode (e.g. rotate display). I set rotate display in the Debian settings.

    I am trying to migrate over to using a MM server and using a device to just display (Google TV dongle) the ip:8080 in full screen but still in portrait mode. I’ve installed Debian server and then installed MM using Sdetweil’s scripts. Everything is working except for rotating the display.

    How do I get MM to display in portrait mode when using the ‘server only’ ( npm run server) option?

      @krouton display where, at a remote device?
      with what browser?

      the tv where the chromecast is installed is in physical portrait mode?

      portrait mode is just height is taller than width

      magicmirror doesn’t know, just uses the browser reported dimensions. you had the device in portrait mode before
