Issue for autostart xibo-player - Ubuntu 18.04

[Jack_Shooter]

Hi

I use the script from Tony.J

/etc/systemd/system/start-xibo.service

[Unit]
Description=Service Xibo-client
[Service]
Environment=“HTTP_PROXY=your.proxy:port/”
Environment=“HTTPS_PROXY=your.proxy:port/”
Environment=“NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1”
Environment=“http_proxy=your.proxy:port/”
Environment=“https_proxy=your.proxy:port/”
Environment=“no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1”
Type=simple
RestartSec=30
Environment=DISPLAY=:0
User=xibo
ExecStart=/snap/bin/xibo-player
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

It works but i have to click on the desktop in order to get xibo player running…
I dont know why.

Player is on a laptop under ubuntu 18.04 connected to a TV. So only 1 desktop is active maybe it’s related…

Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You need to fix height and width in the linux profil :

Xibo Ubuntu 18.04 Autostart

[Widht%20and%20Height] It’s in french, but this options are in a same place. After you need to start your player manually, wait 1 minute and reboot.
