@Almansio Sorry for the late reply. I had some problems with updating my Pi. Anyways. I think what you are looking for is to run BeoLightControl as a service. Here you can see how: https://gist.github.com/emxsys/a507f3cad928e66f6410e7ac28e2990f

I tried it my self and created a service file called lightcontrol.service with the following content:

[Unit]
Description=BeoLightControl
After=multi-user.target

[Service]
Type=simple
WorkingDirectory=/home/pi/BeoLightControl
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /home/pi/BeoLightControl/BeoLightControl.py -l
Restart=on-abort

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Please remember to change the paths to where you downloaded BeoLightControl.

With this BeoLightControl will be loaded on every boot. Do remeber to stop the service and run the script manually if you want to change settings.

Hope it makes sense? otherwise let me know.

Hi Micheal,

Don’t be sorry at all! Much appreciated for your input! I’m gone for a few days but when I’m back I will give at a try.

And again thank you for your thoughts!👊🏽
