Anthias Play — Custom Digital Signage Player for Raspberry Pi 4

A customized fork of Screenly/Anthias — open-source digital signage solution for Raspberry Pi.

What's Different

This fork adds features not available in the original Anthias:

  • Schedule Slots — default, time-based, and event-based scheduling with priority engine
  • Internationalization — UI available in 5 languages (English, Ukrainian, German, French, Spanish)
  • HDMI Audio Auto-Detection — VLC detects connected HDMI port and routes audio automatically
  • Video Screenshot — captures current video frame via ffmpeg (original only supports framebuffer)
  • Silent Boot — no rainbow splash, no kernel text, custom standby image on boot
  • View Log — tracks playback history in local SQLite database
