      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.

                    @drx1984 thats my install script

                    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)"
