Screensaver from usb thumb drive

[fhinke]

Thanks in advance for your help -
Running Firefox and I am unable to get a screen saver movie (mp4) on a USB thumb drive to run automatically. With the kiosk fully booted if I unplug the USB thumb drive and plug it back in I get the message:

Removable Device /dev/sda1 mounted under /media folder

and the screen saver works properly. The target machine has an internal HDD with the Porteus Kiosk software loaded on it, an internal CD/DVD drive and the USB thumb drive with the screen saver movie. All configuration is done using the wizard. Using the wizard, Removable devices are Enabled and I have tried Run Command

mount /dev/sda1 /media
mount /dev/sdb1 /media
mount /dev/sdc1 /media

without success. In the wizard, Screen saver is enabled and I have checked and rechecked that I didn't misspell the screen saver file name.

Fred,

Why are you posting the same query in a different forum thread?

It's an annual thing.

Because I cant find what ever was posted before because Search fails repeatedly over my tries and many days with:
This page isn’t working
forum.porteus.org is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500

Use a search app like Google and add site:forum.porteus.org to the search.
