Don’t worry, it is all very clear and each command will be clearly explained to you as you should never take some random command off the internet. You should also have a decent grasp of the terminal as you are going to be dabbling with that a bit in order to make this project a reality.
#Screeny pi install#
You should have working knowledge of your computer with the ability to install software on it. I use openSUSE so I will gear this, somewhat, in that direction but this will be general enough that you should be able to accomplish this on any distribution. This is “Front Page Linux” so, number one, you need a Linux machine to start. If you are looking for a useful, first project, for the Raspberry Pi with substantial application, this is most certainly a perfect project upon which to cut your Single Board Computer teeth. If you have any digital pictures and would like to turn a monitor or TV into a picture frame, even home movies, I suppose (that has the potential to be obnoxious), this is a perfect solution for you. Screenly OSE isn’t the only solution to accomplish this but it is arguably the best solution to accomplish this, or at the very minimum, the cleanest and best polish option I have ever used.īottom Line Up Front: If you have any reason to provide information to people in a commercial, business or community center type situation, this may be a perfect fit for you. This can come in handy in any situation where people gather, business, shop, doctor’s waiting room, a church or a community center to name a few.



Screenly OSE is an, open source, digital sign solution that is purpose built for the Raspberry Pi.
