      @drx1984 wider than taller (1920x1080) (w,h) is landscape mode

      taller than wider (1080x1920) (w,h) is portrait mode

      are you trying to do both at the same time?

      landscape on physical screen and portrait over connection?

      can’t do that, physical screen wins

        Good morning,
        So even if I set physical landscape format and restart the system, the MagicMirror doesn’t appear in full screen >> look at the photo I took on my cell phone without Anydesk access.
        mm-quer.jpg

        And I uploaded a video clip to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjiYQ21SoKI

        And I entered the entry with: electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy}:
        mm-6.png

        Where else can the problem be?
        Thanks for your help.

          @drx1984 in the electronOptions add at the end

          ,fullScreen:true
          

          note the leading comma, as this will be after the height:1080

              @drx1984 yes…

              what OS is this

              show results of

              lsb_release -a
              uname -a
              

              also, stop MagicMirror and then delete the .config for Electron as before

              then restart MagicMirror

                @sdetweil Unfortunately I have to leave now sry, I’ll get back to you tomorrow.
                There is an Ubuntu 22.04.4 installed on an IntelNuc.

                I have another YouTube video >you can see how it is briefly in full screen at the start and then the full screen goes away again. Watch the video clip until the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fRf2pJuET8

                thanks

                    Good morning, MagicMirror actually starts when I restart, but I can also start MagicMirror in the terminal with pm2 start.

                    If I start the MagicMirror myself via the terminal, everything is displayed in full screen, but not when I reboot.

                    I installed MagicMirror with this script: bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”

                    Everything works, except the full screen doesn’t work when IntelNuc is restarted.

                      so, lets create the pm2 entry

                      pm2 stop all
                      pm2 delete 0
                      pm2 save -f
                      # run script from my list to setup pm2
                      bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)"
