Yes we often use the Raspberry PI for displays. The Pi takes a bit of setting up as you need to install the sound driver and driver for the USB-RS485 cable. The instructions for setting up were on another thread - https://www.syncrolight.co.uk/forum/show...=Raspberry
One all setup you then have to export your Show to a .shp format file using the Show Designer and then copy the .sho and .wav file to the Pi using a file copy program (such as Putty / PSCP command).
The Show Player for the Pi is command line based with several command line parameter for setting schedule times etc. The latest version also allows triggering from external push buttons connected to the GPIO pins of the Pi.
