Anthias

Anthias turns Raspberry Pi devices and legacy PCs into digital signage players, allowing users to schedule and display images, video files, and web‑based content on connected screens. The platform provides a web interface for uploading media, arranging playlists, and configuring playback parameters, making it straightforward to manage multiple displays from a single point. It runs on lightweight hardware, leveraging the low power consumption of Raspberry Pi while supporting full‑size PCs for larger installations.

The software is open source and released under a stable version, with continuous integration tests and code quality checks documented in its repository. Installation options are detailed in the project documentation, covering both containerised and native setups. Users can extend functionality by contributing to the codebase or supporting development through the project's sponsorship channel.

Target audiences include hobbyists, educators, small businesses, and organizations that need cost‑effective signage without commercial licensing. By handling common media types and providing remote management, Anthias offers a practical solution for turning inexpensive hardware into reliable display units.
