I applied two way film to both acrylic and glass and the glass had better results. The acrylic bubbled. I tried on several smaller pieces of acrylic with the same result. (Thought maybe it was me) That’s when I switched to glass. Much cleaner result. The last photo looks good.

Just wanted say a quick thank you for the fast responses for my MM. Now time for customizing!

@retroflex I tried auto brightness previously. But after reading your response I went and turned everything auto off. Although I don’t know which feature was the problem it solved my dimming problem. Thank you.

@CyruS1337 I tried auto brightness previously. But after reading your response I went and turned everything auto off. Although I don’t know which feature was the problem it solved my dimming problem. Thank you.

@sdetweil thank you for pointing that out it autostarts now. Well twice so far. Thanks

@Mykle1 thank you for your response. I;m stuck at the part where I need to type cd ~ nano mm.sh. My response is
bash: cd: too many arguments. Any Ideas?

This worked for me. Updating the npm to the latest. I have Raspberry pi 3+ running raspian stretch. Hope this helps.

Hello everyone, I just got my rapsberry up and running and MM installed. A couple of things though. I can’t get it to autostart when my raspberry is turned on. Did some searching through the forum and tried a few things and still won’t autostart. Also when MM is running it’s very dim. When I bring up the UI from the raspberry the screen brightens up. But when I close the raspberry UI the screen dims again. Here is a link to a video of the screen dimming issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
