    I found the perfect player for $25 delivered that works 100% with the Foyer plugin. It also is a great full-blown Smart TV converter with full 4k video and loads of ram for software and storage.

    Player: MXQ Pro 4K Ultra HD 3D 64Bit Wifi Android 7.1 Quad Core Smart TV Box + KODI 18
    eBay for $25 delivered.

    I will sell you one with the software already installed and setup for $39: https://digitaladvertisingmedia.com/product/smart-internet-tv-box/

    It’s 100% Android TV Box and connects to the Google Play store.

    You want to add this app for a seamless wake to digital signage experience:

    Note: There are many Kiosk Mode apps for Android and I found many that work, but some will not autoplay the videos. The one I have listed above is tested and works 100% and autoplay without a hitch.

  • This feels like commercial spam?

    This is not commercial spam, I’ve been using this plugin since the beginning and just trying to help you guys find the right hardware for a cheap price. You can also find the hardware on eBay for cheap.

    I’m using Porteus Kiosk. https://porteus-kiosk.org

    very secure and will do more than just digital signage as well. Runs on x86 hardware.

    Not as cheap as Android hardware probably, but still a good option as well.

    The Foyer plugin is really good for most things and easy to set up and operate. Most of these other solutions require more technical expertise. I have many clients now very happy with Foyer.

    I think as he adds more features it will be a top solution for the price of free.

    Hi @darnellsmith, thanks for recommending that MXQ Pro Android box. I’ve had some very good experiences with Minix X86-i Android boxes (at a $150 price point though) plus that free Fully Kiosk Browser & App Lockdown app. Good news that newer lower priced boxes work well!
