Raspberry Pi screens and Wi-Fi bands for OpenSignage – self-hosted digital signage
for bars, restaurants and events.

Added

  • HDMI output always on (Raspberry Pi): many TVs do not report themselves to the Pi –
    the boot screen showed, then the screen stayed black, also when the TV was switched on
    after the player. The installer now switches the HDMI output on for good
    (video=HDMI-A-1:D in cmdline.txt; the other port when only that one reports a
    screen). The TV still reports its resolutions, so the display page and custom resolutions
    work as usual. An HDMI setting already in the boot line is kept, --no-force-hdmi leaves
    the boot line alone, and the uninstaller removes the setting.

Fixed

  • Both Wi-Fi bands in the scan: a network on 2.4 and 5 GHz showed only its stronger
    band, so 5 GHz seemed to be missing. The scan now shows every band with its signal, e.g.
    "2.4 GHz 72 % · 5 GHz 57 %".
  • No screen detected: when no screen reports itself, the display page of the player says
    so and what helps, instead of "Display control is not available on this device".

All changes: CHANGELOG.md.

Update

Installations on 1.x update from the web interface (Settings → Updates): the server updates
itself first, then the players zone by zone. For the HDMI output and the bands in the Wi-Fi
scan run the client installer once more on the players – both change the system, which an
update from the administration does not (name, pairing and content stay):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/testbild-media/OpenSignage/main/install.sh | sh -s -- player

New installations: one line on the server, one line on every player –

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/testbild-media/OpenSignage/main/install.sh | sh -s -- server
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/testbild-media/OpenSignage/main/install.sh | sh -s -- player --name "Bar north"
