How do I set a password in Screenly on the new Raspberry Pi4?

No SSH is perfectly fine, that is how almost all of us who manage Pi’s connect to it.

Sorry from your screenshot I dont know the exact error, it is kinda hard to see all.

I think you just need to follow one set of specific instructions that should work just like I write because if it works for me the exact hadware and exact step by step, then you must have a bad SD card or one of the steps is not being followed.

Step 1: Download Raspbian OS Bullseye Lite 64bit
Step 2: Flash the image to the SD card using balenaEtcher
Step 3: Once you have the Pi user set up via console, set up the WiFi via configuring it with sudo raspi-config , and locale etc, then enter the bash install script:
bash <(curl -sL https://install-ose.srly.io)
Step 4: If installation completes without errors, say Yes to reboot, if after reboot you get a black screen with no Splash screen giving you the IP address, type in this command in console:
./screenly/bin/upgrade_containers.sh

Report back with pictures… if you have any issues and you followed these steps then you might have a bad SD card and can’t really help.
