Use chromium bundled with New Raspbian PIXEL version 2016-09-23 #75
|
Looking forward to this. Wish I knew how to help.. :-/ |
|
At the moment the build is getting |
|
Has this been integrated yet in the nightly builds? We are trying to set up some devices but would prefer to have the latest and greatest |
|
@guysoft you think fullpageos will work with this latest release from pi foundation? I'd like to give it a try when it is ready. Thanks! |
|
For those of you hoping that the new chromium build would solve the mp4 playback issues, it appears to have helped a bit, but its in no way a replacement for omxplayer, the new pixel interface is great though |
|
Ok, |
|
Ok, had a chance to test that nightly, there dosn't seem to be any |
|
I made another PIXEL installation one with the full image, that could also be tested, since I can't see a package for the PIXEL chromium-browser available: |
|
Oké, i a'm missing the hardware acceleration on my RPI 3, is there any way to enable this? are they working on it? Not only for video but also for CSS3 transitions and jquery animations. Is it possible to make a epiphany-browser build? epiphany-browser seems to do things much better. |

This build: 2016-10-23_2016-09-23-fullpageos-jessie-0.7.0.zip is by far the best i have seen till now. maybe you could create a build from this one? if i boot the image the browser does not start. also fullpageos.local is not set. Also the jpg bug is fixed in this release. |

Hey @guysoft 1: video's play smooth(er), jps are displayed, overall experiënce is better. Needs editing: boot splashscreen, browser start, remove gui (menu background etc.) fix fullpageos.local |
|
@guysoft can you create a img from the PIXEL installation with the full image with working fullpageos.local, and browser start? |
|
@guysoft i see that the build has gone wrong, at the base there is a folder "filesystem" in there are the config files etc.... i will try to cp all to / |
|
Using the 10/23 Nightly build on a RaspberryPi 3 and also noticing that Chromium fails to launch. If you launch manually, the http://localhost/Welcome and http://localhost/FullPageDashboard do Not load. Is there a way to start these (maybe a service?) via shell script? |
|
This is known, it requires to change how the custom session starts on
pixel. Again, help would be great because I am busy with my startup company.

New image ( 2016-11-25) was released, and has this written as a change: http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/release_notes.txt Will build a nightly with it so we can see if it changes anything |
Ok good news. Looks like the Pi foundation released a new build of chromium that they are bundling with the official RaspberryPI.
See release note:s for 2016-09-23.
* Chromium web browser included.It seems like it will also use the hardware acceleration in the Pi for video playback. So this fixes a lot of issues at once
This has a potential to fix the following issues:
