Remove startup splash video

[fh1105]

Hello!

How do I remove the 'splash video' shown on startup of Recalbox 8.0 Electron?

Thanks

Here

is described how you can add new Videos, which Video will be played and set the Playback Time.
It is not described how you can turn the Video completely off.

I think I found a solution for the problem:
You must edit your "recalbox.conf" File
Go to A - System Options -> ## Splash screen duration
and set system.splash.length=1

I also wanted to disable the splash screen and in my case I ssh'd to the machine, remounted the root partition (https://wiki.recalbox.com/en/tutorials/system/access/remount-partition-with-write-access) and disabled the related init script :

# mount -o remount,rw /
# chmod -x /etc/init.d/S06splash

Inspecting the script there seems to also be possible to create the file /overlay/.configs/skipvideosplash to skip the videos, but you should write-protect this file, because it would be erased after the first boot.
