I installed the current Anthias on my Pi3 with Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye Lite the manual way (not with the Raspberry Pi Imager).
It´s more or less working, but if I reboot the Pi, the assets are not starting. The display only shows the screenly logo in drak blue on dark gray background. I have to go to the web page and click on “Next asset”. Then everything is ok, till next reboot.
The asset of cause have a valid start- and end- date and is set as active.
Hi @salmanfarisvp,
I’ve found a similar problem on my PI3b with raspi os lite (x32) installed by bash on git running with wi-fi.
When i reboot, that happens:
1- colorfull raspberry square
2- the screen became white for some second
3- anthias logo on purple background with IP
4- screenly logo on dark background.
the situation is that i can reach screenly both via ip and ssh on the same IP, and the asset is working on the “forever” setting but it’s not display.
The only solution that i’ve found is that every time i save new “forever” setting, the asset start to be display.
I cannot figure it out a solution, can you please help?
thx <3
Hi @explora.andrea , Is it possible to check with 64-bit OS and try? Also, can you confirm the Raspberry Pi is working fine with generic OS - Displays over HDMI is ok.
@explora.andrea, we are glad that it worked on your end. However, I haven’t tested that setting on my Pi yet. It seems like a code-level issue. Let me create a GitHub issue that covers this topic, if it doesn’t exist yet.
@explora.andrea, I tried setting up an asset to run Forever but the asset’s not showing up after succeeding boots (after the next immediate device boot). (I haven’t changed the duration to 60 secs. It’s still as 10s.)
Hello, I have recently install Anthias into my pi 5 and it boots properly to the purple logo splash screen and I am able to connect to the web interface and add assets. However, the assets do not load onto the screen attach to the pi 5. I have tried different images and videos for the assets to no avail. Can anyone help me figure this out? Let me know what additional information is needed to help.
Thank you
I really don’t mean for this to sound insulting at all, but did you turn them “on”? I didn’t realize there was the little toggle at first and got a bit frustrated that adding an asset doesn’t put it in the “play” queue it loads it into a “staging” queue first then you have to use the toggle to move into the Play/Live queue.
@jav418, let me know if you’ve still having issues after toggling newly-added assets. Uploading assets automatically adds them to the list of inactive assets.
I set up Anthias with a LAN connection on the raspberry pi and an internet connection. The next day I tried the same raspberry pi connected to a router without internet (we use it at a fair in offline mode) and it did not work except for the two pictures uploaded with network connection. The others uploaded in offline mode did not appear.
TLDR:
Try setting the start date and time way back. My setup was offline and I think there was a problem synchronising the correct date and time.
@jav418, have you check the start and end dates of new assets that you added?
Are the start and end time being displayed correctly, given the current timezone that you’re in?
yes, I’ve changed the start and end dates of all of the new assets to be as early as I can set them, and as far out as I can set them in the date selection tool. again the only thing showing up on the screen is the anthias purple logo.
