2 Introduction
VideoPoster-IV is an industrial media player based on Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 (CM3) for displaying
shows containing still images and video clips. On start-up, it automatically loops over a playlist until a content
update is detected.
Updates for the show can be distributed over various sources. They can be detected on hot-plugged USB flash
drives or directly be uploaded to the device via network. Another method to receive content updates is to
configure the device for periodically polling a remote FTP server.
