Officially supported Players
Raspberry Pi 5 (recommended)
This low-cost, ARM-based computer is fully capable of running Bohemica Signage with two outputs. We've tested it with Full HD video. The 4 GB version is enough; there's no need for 8 GB.
Run the Raspberry Pi at Full HD
We recommend running the Raspberry Pi at Full HD (1080p) — it's excellent for Full HD video. Smooth 4K video is better left to a more powerful player such as a NUC; on a Pi, 4K video can stutter, though 4K still images or low-frame-rate content are usually fine. You can still request 4K with a Preferred resolution on the Display, but for heavy video on a Pi, Full HD is the safe choice.
We strongly recommend using "endurance" or "long-lasting" SD cards. Good options include the WD Purple microSDXC, SanDisk Max Endurance, Samsung PRO Endurance, and Kingston Endurance — cards usually marketed for 24/7 CCTV use.
For EU customers, we offer a pre-built, plug-and-play kit via our partner RPIShop.cz.
ASUS NUC 11 ATK series
We've had great results with this low-end ASUS NUC. Its two video outputs can each drive 4K/UHD.
Check ASUS's memory compatibility list carefully. We do not recommend using the Patriot PSD44G240081S RAM module.
This player supports M.2 drives. The Patriot P300 128 GB has worked well for us.
Intel NUC7 series
The NUC7 series is a legacy option: models such as the NUC7CJYHN2 and NUC7PJYHN2 are older but still fully supported. They take 2.5" SATA SSDs.
What about the older Raspberry Pi 4B?
Nothing stops you from installing the image on older Raspberry Pi models, but they are not officially supported.
