Start Xibo client without options dialog

[louloizides]

I have a two screen Xibo setup. The clients crash a lot. I’d like to use task scheduler or write a small service that makes sure that they restart. But the issue is that the second screen client always starts up with a settings dialog before the player starts. I need a way to get around this. We tried using a keyboard emulator to go and press the “start client” button in the dialog but it hasn’t worked well.

As an alternative is it possible to have two watch dogs running?

Your startup short cut is wrong - you have it with -o which casues the options screen to be shown.

Yes - you can rename the watchdog exe in the same way as the player exe, and then configure it’s ProcessPath as the renamed player exe.

Thanks, that seemed to solve the problem
