1 year ago Not really sure, my experience with systemd is quite limited. I'd guess either the user it is trying to run as doesn't have appropriate permissions (member of video group I think) or some important environment variable isn't set.

I am trying to create a kiosk that has a video loop. This video gets cross checked with a md5 hash from a website so it needs to be launched from within a script after it does the hash.
I can type "cvlc --fullscreen --no-osd --loop --no-audio /home/pi/$(hostname).mp4" in the CLI and it will run the video fine. I can put that command into a script called runvideo.sh and it works fine.
However when I run it with systemd, I just cannot get it working. Here are the error messages:
