I am running a Raspberry Pi 4 as a signage computer and I need to run slideshows on two televisions which both need to be able to fullscreen.

When I use feh and attempt to fullscreen the screen2 it just fullscreens on screen1. I have tried the --geometry and it does not correct this without removing the fullscreen argument.

When I run xrandr it shows both screens as being screen 0: How can I make the Pi recognize the other screen as seperate from the original or is there some other image program that I can use other then feh for this?

#! /bin/bash

export DISPLAY=:0

feh --geometry 1920+1920 -xFZD 7.0

I have tried changing the display variable and swapping the positions of the --geometry and -xFZD to no avail thinking perhaps they execute in order but the full screen seems to supersede anything I try to do to move it to the second screen and without the full screen the image does not fit the screen properly.

I was just looking to do the same and found that I can utilize various monitors in my setup by adding the --xinerama-index {screen_index} flag.

example

feh --geometry 1920+1920 -xFZD 7.0 --xinerama-index 0
feh --geometry 1920+1920 -xFZD 7.0 --xinerama-index 1
