Odd, when it boots I have a blank screen for a good 5 seconds then loads into my OS. I made sure my file was named 'splash' and it's a PNG. What am I doing wrong?
It seems that your png has some problem, so check if you can see it on your raspberry display. Anyway if you are working on Raspberry 3B+ check these steps: In the file /boot/config.txt add disable_splash=1 In the file /boot/cmdline.txt add consoleblank=0 loglevel=1 quiet splash logo.nologo console=tty3 Install fbi with sudo apt install fbi Create file /etc/systemd/system/splashscreen.service with this content [Unit] Description=Splash screen DefaultDependencies=no After=local-fs.target [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/fbi -d /dev/fb0 --noverbose -a /etc/splash.png StandardInput=tty StandardOutput=tty [Install] WantedBy=sysinit.target Copy your splash.png on /etc/ folder then enable service systemctl enable splashscreen
@@vigasan unfortunatelly it's not owrking with my PYQt5 application.

Hi @Vigasan! What a great video! I tried it out, but something went wrong in my case. Following the steps, I acheived to change the splash image, and any messages appear at the console when booting up. However, the RPi boots to the desktop and not to a PySide GUI I've created for that purpose (please not that the GUI works just fine when running it from the python console, for example). I've got my file in /home/pi/Folder1/app1.py, which path I included in the rc.local. As I mentioned, it is a PySide2 GUI. I don't understand if I should make anything different because of that or something. Does anyone tried something similar or has any recommendation? Thanks!
@@vigasan Hi! Thank you for your response :). Okei, so I suppose I should set the auto-login on console from "sudo raspi-config" in order to disable the desktop. Once I do this, the RPi boots up to the console, but the GUI does not start yet. Then, in order to directly run the application on boot up every time the RPi is turned on, should I set a specific command in any file? If I try to run the GUI code in the console like: "python 3 /home/pi/App.py, the following error pops up: qt.qpa.screen: QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display. Could not connect to any X display Any idea on how could I go around this error?

It can be done with ARMbian too?

Check rights on splash.png file
@@vigasan I'm a noob, how does one check the rights? Once I do depending on what it says what will I have to do next?
It seems that your png has some problem, so check if you can see it on your raspberry display.
Anyway if you are working on Raspberry 3B+ check these steps:
In the file /boot/config.txt add disable_splash=1
In the file /boot/cmdline.txt add consoleblank=0 loglevel=1 quiet splash logo.nologo console=tty3
Install fbi with sudo apt install fbi
Create file /etc/systemd/system/splashscreen.service with this content
[Unit]
Description=Splash screen
DefaultDependencies=no
After=local-fs.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/fbi -d /dev/fb0 --noverbose -a /etc/splash.png
StandardInput=tty
StandardOutput=tty
[Install]
WantedBy=sysinit.target
Copy your splash.png on /etc/ folder
then enable service
systemctl enable splashscreen
Application i QT was written in C? How about python application written in QT designer? Should I change something in command in 8:24?
Hi Pawel, sorry but I never used python with Qt designer.
About command in 8:24, it defines the application that will be launched at boot.
@@vigasan ok, but what does "-c " mean in this command?
@@pawejanowiec5987 "-c" means a specific command as the specified user not C language

If your application needs Desktop to be executed the system doesn't work. It works by disabling desktop at boot and directly running application.

How to show pyqt5 app before log screen. Before enter the password
You can’t show your app before log screen. You can hide log screen and show an image during boot. Raspberry needs to load kernel and others modules before to start any app
Ok...thanks Mr.vigasan ....but can I hide all my apps and desktop from others.
And can I show a pyqt5 app on a raspberry pi lite operating system from terminal..... Pls help me!
You need to start your system from CLI and not with Rasbian Desktop. After you can follow procedure on video to start your pyqt5 app
Ok thank you 😊
Bro are you using QT free version or paid version?
It’s the free version
Very very good
