I'm seeing this same behavior. I have 3 tablets in the house all looking at a central server-only MagicMirror instance and the images just flash like crazy on each tablet.
I see the same issue, is there any way to avoid this?
The issue seems to arise because the timer is instantiated once on every client (by MMM-BackgroundSlideshow.js
) , as opposed to just once (if it were to live in node_helper.js
) - and when any timer fires the image changes.
Issue: When only a single client (browser) is connected to the MagicMirror, everything works fine. But open another tab with the MagicMirror Url and the images change in higher frequency in all tabs. Open a few more and the background image changes like crazy.
Config: Default installation with default settings, only changed
transitionImages
tofalse
so the image change is visible with high frequency.
