Hi @Christy82592

The main problem with using the Pi zero for this purpose is that it only has one processor core and 512MB of memory, so it may struggle a bit.

Also no network capability, so you need to consider how you can update the material displayed.

But check out this tutorial from the learning center.

> A big project request for the Raspberry Pi is the ability to make a digital sign, that loops images/videos/other media fullscreen with no interactivity. This can be a great way to display dashboards, promotional videos and other media. For past...

Edit:  
I don’t think the Pi zero has HDMI audio capability, so something else to check.
