Google Chrome works on Pi starting from 5.8.2. It's slow, but works.

No. It will be in public version when it will be supported.

error message on RasPi-Client is "To run Chrome or VLC specify video=...(U) in configuration file."

Why do I have to specify Video? What does Video has to do with chrome? How do I specify the settings(video or others) to connect chrome?

We always get the following error message:
To run Chrome or VLC specify video=...(U) in configuration file.

What is wrong?

If chrome (really, if something at all) doesn't work - show us log: https://wtware.com/logs.html

Hi aka,

does the connection via chrome works in version 5.6.16. What are the settings we need to change in the configuration file. (We tried it, and it doesn't work.) Or is there a later version where you try to fullfill this? If yes, can we have a beta-version?

best regards

Jan

We need Chrome, otherwise WTware is not a Solution for us and we have to choose NoTouch or ThinLinx. :-(

Hi aka,

Is Chrome going to be available on Pi anytime soon? 2017 Q4 or 2018 Q1. Why is Chrome in the parameters then? Do you plan an other web browser for connecting with the client?

Thank you

We don't want to add Chrome support right now, for it's too heavy and distributive will become too large for downloading by Pi.

Aka,

Can you give us an idea if Chrome is going to be available on Pi anytime soon? 2016 Q3 /2017 Q2?

Thanks!

There are no VLC and Chrome for Pi yet.

I'm trying to use Google Chrome on a Raspberry Pi (2) and get the message:

To run Chrome or VLS specify Video=...(U)

I honestly have no idea where to start to troubleshoot. I chosed every option on video with a (U) and none worked.

Is Google Chrome built into the kernel, or should I have something in my TFTP folder for Chrome?

Is there any howto information? say something with "you need these basic options" to get chrome to work

application = chrome
chrome_url=http://www.google.com
chrome_mode=kiosk
chrome_language=en
video=openchrome(U)


Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Carl
