Hello,
I've bought a RPi 5 to use in kiosk mode for Home Assistant.
It is connected to a simpel desktop screen and there come the limitation. In 1920x1080 resolution I can't get all the information I need.
So I thought that it is maybe possible to toggle/rotate between chromium tabs in certain interval.
I asked AI to help and he came up with a loop that kills chromium and restarts another browser after 10 seconds.
That kind of works but it is not fancy and also demands a lot of resources of RPi.
I've asked the same question in Home Assistant so maybe there is already a solution embedded in HA.
Can someone please give the golden answer
Thanks
Christoph
