![]() ![]() I ended up using the below command in my automatic start up script: fbi -a -u -noverbose -blend 1000 -t 60 /home/pi/pictures/* This should cycle though your jpg images, changing every 5 seconds. All these command line options can be found in the reference material at the bottom of this step.įirst navigate into the pictures directory on the Raspberry Pi: cd pictures Now is a good time to test to make sure that fbi is working and to start experimenting with the command line options. scp C:/Users/username/OneDrive/Pictures/wallpapers/* will prompt you for the Raspberry Pi password, then it will copy everything over from the folder specified.įYI: later in this guide we will set a static IP address if required. Now on your Windows PC, from the command prompt you will need to enter in a command similar to the below, using the path location where you saved your pictures to and the IP address you got from the ifconfig step above. First you will need to know the IP address of Raspberry Pi, so at the terminal type: ifconfig It's easy to move files from your Windows PC to your Raspberry Pi using the command scp on your windows machine. to list the files and folders that are in your current director you need to type: ls.to determine the location of the current directory type: pwd.Let's make a directory/folder, I was still under /home/pi so I typed in: mkdir pictures Once that is completed we need to install fbi.Īt the terminal enter: sudo apt-get install fbi The "sudo" part of the command allows you to run programs with security privileges, as with "Run as Administrator" in Windows. Let's now update the Raspberry Pi OS. At the terminal enter: sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade You should also have network/internet access if you entered in your Wi-Fi details earlier. The default username is "pi" and the password is generally the one setup in Raspberry Pi Imager earlier under ssh. Once you get to the login screen enter in your credentials. ![]()
