Both use a power board with remote (the RemotePi). On the main (alu)
panel there are the two power buttons, one for the player/server and one
for the controller. The first metal button switches on the display and
toggles between different screens, the second one has the LED connected
to a script that monitors if all players are online, pressing it toggles
between "all players" or "main players only". 

On the back it's just the power connection, audio out from the Hifiberry
and a panel mount ethernet connection.

The controller is just piggy backed to the touchscreen. It's a Pi4,
running a Vivaldi browser in Kiosk mode to display LMS Material skin.
(there are also other screens -with the remote switching tabs- for full
screen cover art or a clock)
The OS is a full Raspbian, although I guess I could opt to downgrade
that now to a more minimal version. The full Raspbian allows to display
on-screen notifications (just some basic status messages every now and
then), and the screensaver options enable to dim the screen when not
used and switch off the screen completely when not used for a longer
period of time.

Since it's a regular web browser you show anything you want on there.
