Video looper and Waveshare-DSI-LCD #206

Hello people,

I would like to apologize if I write something wrong. I am new to all this. Begginer.

Recently I bought a 4 inch

Waveshare DSI-LCD display. I want to use it with a video looper. I have a problem and the screen is black eveytime i install video looper. Before that, screen is working perfect. I have installed LCD drivers like waveshare says in their wiki and instructions.

Link of the waveshare wiki: https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/4inch_DSI_LCD_(C)

I am using Video Looper from the below link: https://videolooper.de/

Is there any way, my raspberry Pi 4 run first all the drivers that I have installed and then run video looper? How can I fix this problem?

Looking forward for your support. Kind Regards Michalis

Unfortunately I have zero experience with non hdmi screens... maybe this can help you: https://github.com/adafruit/pi_video_looper/issues/185#issuecomment-1500531899

Thank you for your fast support. I've seen #185 but, its not the same problem as mine.

I think that I have to let raspberry, run first all the drivers (included monitor driver), and then run the looper. If that happens, I believe that I will have image in the Waveshare DSI-LCD display.

But I don't know how to make that.
