Everything you need to run digital signage on your own hardware.
Upload files directly or point to any HTTP/HTTPS URL. Anthias handles rendering through its built-in Qt-based browser and hardware-accelerated media players.
Set start and end dates for each asset. Control per-asset display duration. Assets activate and deactivate on schedule without manual intervention.
Drag-and-drop ordering, shuffle mode, active/inactive states. Skip forward, back, or jump to a specific asset.
1920×1080 native resolution with hardware-accelerated video playback on Raspberry Pi. HDMI audio output supported.
WebSocket-powered live sync between the web dashboard and the display. Changes reflect immediately without a page refresh.
Anthias polls the connected TV over HDMI-CEC and reports whether it's currently on or off. Visible on the System Info page so you can spot dark screens at a glance.
Manage assets, view system health, and configure settings from any browser on your local network. No app to install.
Full API with OpenAPI documentation. Create, update, and delete assets. Control playback. Manage settings. Automate everything.
Runs as a set of Docker containers: web server, task queue, viewer, and Redis. Clean isolation, easy updates.
Export settings and assets as a single compressed archive. Restore to the same device or migrate to a new one.
Optional HTTP basic authentication protects the dashboard and API from unauthorized access on your network.
View disk space, CPU load, uptime, and software version from the System Info page. Reboot or shut down remotely.
