Remove little black rectangle on screen - raspberry pi
To rid yourself of the annoying little black rectangle do the following, its only a work around but it does work.
Create a script, mine starts my kiosk as well so is called /home/pi/screen.sh
this script should look like: #!/bin/bash
startx –help
while true; do chromium –kiosk –incognito –enable-plugins http://your web addresshere.html;sleep 180s;done
The 2nd line is my kiosk – you probably wont need it but I put it there anyway.
Then add the following line @/home/pi/screen.sh
to the file:
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
Reboot and watch the splash screen followed by a brief black flash
and then your screenly, kiosk, or whatever your running without the
black rectangle.
