I Need a low maintenance, basic user friendly, all-in-one digital signage solution for a waiting room display. A PowerPoint presentation (.pptx) is created on a Windows machine with some simple slide transition effect and individual display time per slide (not part of this job). A Person with basic ppt-knowhow will maintain this presentation and frequently save it to the root directory of a usb stick (ntfs) on a windows machine. This stick will then be inserted in a raspberry pi in the waiting room. After booting the raspberry pi should automatically start looping the presentation with smooth transitions (i have had some issues while playing around on a raspi B+). Furthermore the transition of the slides should be accordingly the predefined display times from the pptx. If an error occurs a technically unskilled Person should be able to just switch off the pi and after reebooting the system would automatically continue looping ppt. I see different approaches; - it could be done with open office but i see some problems regarding performace (transitions, reliability, compatibility to ms) - pptx could be converted to pdf and a seperate file with display times per slide would have to be generated. Furthermore a simple transition effect should be configurable. It is important, that a totally unskilled person could operate the system as described above. Please make me a fair fix Price offer and give me some references of similar jobs you have done.

This can be easily done! It really only depends on how you want the slideshow to work and how you want to display it and manage it. There are a million (literally) Ways to do this. Perhaps we can talk about it in depth? I just want to make sure you get exactly what you need! And to answer your question; I've done literally hundreds of projects and was even involved into developing small parts of the RPi. So... Let's talk?

Dear Sir, This is Reza, I am expert on raspberry pi and I have designed a digital signage exactly in the way you want it to work for non professional users. I have developed it in the way that even you don't need to add any usb stick to transfer the file to the raspberry pi. Users can connect to raspberry pi with wifi and set the ppt file to play. I have this system in many public place in Malaysia, If you like I can take a video and show you how nice it works. hope to hear from you soon. Regards Reza
