I'd purchase a Raspberry PI. The power for this $30 computer can come from the USB port on the TV. Output from the Raspberri PI is from the HDMI port into the HDMI port on the TV.
I'd have the Raspberry PI boot and load a browser full screen with no menu. That browser would be configured to display a HTML page from itself and have that HTML page refresh every "X" minutes. I'd then from your production system, I'd generate that HTML and whatever graphs / charts that you'd like. I would then have those files sent to the Raspberry PI via FTP, torrent, Dropbox or similar. $0.02. -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Desmond Lloyd Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2018 12:32 PM To: ProFox Email List <[email protected]> Subject: Displaying Content on a TV We want to display a list of orders on a TV. coming from a VFP based system.
