Stuck at second to last stage on "diy lofi hip hop raspberry

Post by ripperjack »

Hi,

I have gotten all the way through the guide for "DIY Lofi Hip Hop Raspberry Pi radio"

However, after I've installed the Kiosk mode, and switched to the Hat screen, it just restarts and displays the tool bar, and a white blank Chromium page. I can open a new tab and view youtube fine outside of this.

I can't find anything online, regarding this.

I'm using a Pi4 Model B, current version of Debian-Bullseye
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="11"
VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye

I've seen some mentions about bullseye being different with chromium, but not really found any explanations on how to follow that up.

Anyone able to assist at all if possible?

Thanks !

Hi all,

Now i'm daft so not sure at all why this works,

but found this post:

https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopi ... 0#p1990146

and after running:

Code: Select all

echo 'export CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --use-gl=egl"' > /etc/chromium.d/egl
It's now displaying the video!

So I hope if anyone is stuck where I was, this will help :)

Additional followup for anyone else who is struggling on this issue (hopefully this will show up in google)

I had an issue with the audio-out of chromium following getting the display to work.

Resolution ended up being, just uninstalling pulse-audio which i found here: https://community.element14.com/product ... e-pi-4-fix

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio

sudo reboot

sudo apt autoremove

sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset

sudo reboot

Then everything worked like a dream
