RuneUI on (non-smart) TV

Postby hansh64 » 09 Feb 2016, 15:37

Hi,

Would it be possible to install a minimal light-weight graphical environment with a light-weight browser, autostart and show the RuneAudio web interface on my Panasonic full HD plasma TV, which is connected to my RPi2 over HDMI? (And maybe control it over CEC, or is that too much to ask... :D )

Thanks!

Hans.

It might work, but I think it would use too much system ressources. I think it would be better and simpler to let the Pi with RuneAudio alone and have another one (or any other computer) with any OS that has a graphical environnement and web browsing ability connected to your TV.

Hi BayleeWylie,

the Pi2 has absolutely no problem with this.
The only things you have to consider are:
- do not use X11 (use framebuffer instead)
- use a light weight browser like midori

Hi Frank,

Connecting a keyboard was good just for current session and wasn't saved with reboot, but "zoom-level=1.7" did the trick!

Thanks!

Hans.
