Syncrolight Show Player for the Raspberry Pi - Available soon.
If you don't have an old laptop or PC to run your display then this is a perfect solution. The Raspberry Pi is small and will boot and run without needing any screen or keyboard attached it, so its easy to accommodate if you have limited space.
Simply use the Syncrolight Show Designer to create your show as normal then export it to .SHP format and copy onto the PI. The Pi will play mp3 files and output the audio for the show via the headphone jack.
The USB-RS485 cable for your controllers simply connects to a USB port on the Pi just the same as a PC.
The Raspberry Pi Show Player supports all our USB-RS485 controllers and we hope to add support for our Ethernet controllers soon too.
If anyone wants more information please let me know.
