I love Raspberry Pis (tiny $35 computers the size of a set of playing cards). If this is something you guys can help me out with that would be phenomenal.I love dashboards. ( ) I already have the monitor and RPI setup to access the DAKboard interface but just wanted to add the screensaver feature the same way just using FLICKR rather than GOOGLE for everything. Here is the video that created the idea that I wanted to duplicate: I know that it requires the install of a PIR to wake it up and go back to DAKboard display but I just cant seem to find the coding to make it into a screensaver as well as to access FLICKR the same way you guys do on the calendar side. I like the idea of the pictures rotating through while on calendar mode, but I was wondering, I’ve searched all over the vast internet and found different things about making the calendar also a smart photo display so that its not a constant calendar on the screen but rather works like a screen saver to display photos. Love DAKboard and the fact that it uses RPI3 makes it great for projects especially with FLICKR being an add on photo source. With the help of great apps like Dakboard, she’s a prime candidate to move into the 21st century! She still transcribes it from the Alexa app on her laptop, rather than using her phone at the grocery store! Go figure! Oh, well, there’s still hope. I’ve got her using Alexa now for her shopping list, so all of us can add to it without wondering the paper list has gone. I almost have my wife convinced that this will be much better than the eraseboard on the refrigerator we’ve been using. I’m not sure which change did the trick, but I’m betting it was forcing the url early enough so it didn’t get messed up.Īnyway, it’s working great now, and the calendar in month mode seems to roll forward every week, not just a static month view. I put the url directly following the - kiosk command, and followed it with -incognito (with a single -, as suggested on another site). I think cut&paste from the instruction above introduces an extra line feed somehow. If you are having problems getting stuck at the “incognito” screen on startup, you might try entering the line in “autostart” directly rather than cut&paste. Get stuck? Buy the Wall Display or CPU in our shop. When you’re all done, plug it in, hang it on your wall and enjoy! There’s almost no bezel on the front, and the back cover pops off easily, leaving the frame which I then attached the photo frame wire to use for hanging!
