Touchscreen project help
Mike A:
Not sure what you are asking.
You need some kind of computing device to run the software.
PC, PI, or something.
You can't just load software on a USB stick and then run it off of magic.

So if you put photos on a thumb drive and just plug it into arc or monitor it will be able to recognise that and show the photos
No pc
Same with music on a thumb drive it will play the music with no pc
So was just wondering if there was any software to put on a thumb stick that would help run a jukebox program

that kind of software is built into the firmware of the TV/Monitor. it's an actual "program" that runs in the TV itself when you select the USB as an input device. it has nothing to do with whatever is on the USB drive.
you are going to need some kind of computer device attached to the display to do the things you are looking to do.
Daddynoob:
Might try a fire stick or android box and also the fire stick has alexia on so might be able to use that to play songs
There are also usb drives that have a mini pc built in
Just trying to make sure I get the right stuff prior to the build
So next on my shopping list will be the light covers or deffusers but really wanted the arch part but can’t find them
Then I will look at sound to light rgb leds
Then a template
Thanks again
