Slideshow

The below commands will setup fim as a slideshow on your display.

Important Notes

  • fim will crash if there are no photos for it to use as a slideshow
  • You will likely want to tweak the fim command invocation below. These are great settings as a starting point but you'll probably want to make adjustments for your use case.
  • This setup uses incron to restart fim when photos are deleted from the pictures folder. Without this piece fim will crash if a picture is removed from the pictures directory prior to fim rescaning the pictures directory.

Setup


useradd -m -G video -s /usr/sbin/nologin fim
apt install acl
setfacl -m "u:fim:rwX" /tank/pictures
setfacl -dm "u:fim:rwX" /tank/pictures
apt install fim imagemagick ttf-dejavu
