possible ignore of max_refresh = 30 #21

As it seems, the config parameter max_refresh (which is set to 30 in my case in paperpi.conf) is ignored. Every four changes there is a hard refresh. See this, the last refresh is done right before the video starts:

edit: video doesnt work, see gif at: https://imgur.com/a/6eoObdo thank god its 2021, you can pause the gif, move forward, etc.

I am using a daemonized setup, defining max_refresh in /etc/default/paperpi.ini

# CONFIG_VERSION=1
[main]
# waveshare display type use HD for IT8951 displays
display_type = HD
# required vcom value for IT8951 screens
vcom = -2.13
# maximum refresh between total screen clear for HD displays
max_refresh = 30

is this intentional or did I do this wrong?

@jhaake2308 This looks like a PaperPi issue, not an epdlib problem. I've moved the ticket there and closed this one.
