Hello,
I'm creating a network of remote large screens on which we will display slideshow. That slides are remotely updatable, and updated daily.
The project is ready to deploy. So, if somebody needs I can explain the way I take.
Here is a short description :
- openBrick PC : no fan, no HD, no keyboard, no mouse, booting from USB memory key.
from www.openbrick.org
- plasma 42" screens.
- DSL (of course)
- gqview application to display the slides.
- slides are updated through scp, an a script is launched remotely through ssh to kill gqview, move files in USB, then launch gqview
Main problems found was :
- have a slideshow app (xzgv isn't designed to display slideshow until now) -> I choose Gqview, small size, no installation needed.
- launch gqview remotely through ssh and display slides on the screen connected to the PC (and not to the ssh session ...)
Is related to Damn Small Linux Board » Damn Small Linux » Other Help Topics » Using DSL for an LCD Picture-Frame project
I hope this can help somebody.
Michel.
