2 kiosk on 2 monitors?

[SaymonDzen]

I decided to give up raspberries because she stopped coping with our boards and took a more powerful computer and connected two monitors with different boards to it. But I can't figure out how to run the third instance on another screen. In ubuntu 20.04, both monitors display: 0
Please help!

you should be about to tell the kiosk which monitor to use by exporting/setting the env variable DISPLAY while launching the kiosk.

It defaults to DISPLAY=:0.0

Hi, brianann!
I wrote both physical monitors are defined as a single space and with DISPLAY 0.0 you cannot specify a physical monitor. If it were so simple, I would not ask for help.

I think what you want is #39
I've tried to implement it myself as i commented there, but it didn't work very well...

i'll get a pi4 and get this working, sounds very useful. my kiosks are pi3 with single display, no reason this can't be implemented.

I found a workaround https://vladvasiliu.com/post/20180807-1626-dual_screen_kiosk_ubuntu/ Maybe someone will be useful

I see this issue was closed with PR #54, but I don't see how to implement it. I see on the main repo page it says "Can specify where to start kiosk for multiple displays", but I don't understand how to specify which display and I don't see any other references in the documentation.

I have the first playlist working correctly on the first display. How do I get the second playlist to play on the second display?

Here is my systemctl service:
