- Fixed start.sh environment variable loading from systemctl
- Use here-document (<<<) instead of pipe for subshell to preserve exports
- Added better error handling for evdev device enumeration
- Added exception handling in intro video playback with detailed logging
- App now properly initializes with DISPLAY=:0 and WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
- Commented out forced pygame backend (causes issues with display initialization)
- Added SDL_VIDEODRIVER and SDL_AUDIODRIVER fallback chains (wayland,x11,dummy)
- Limited KIVY_INPUTPROVIDERS to wayland,x11 (avoids problematic input providers)
- Reduced FFMPEG_THREADS from 4 to 2 (conserves Raspberry Pi resources)
- Reduced LIBPLAYER_BUFFER from 2MB to 1MB (saves memory)
- Fixed asyncio event loop deprecation warning (use try/except for get_running_loop)
