| WPA3 | No |
| TPM and Secure Boot | No |
| Power over ethernet | Possible, with a HAT or a splitter |
Wireless
The radio follows the Raspberry Pi generation the player was built on.
| Generation | Bands |
|---|---|
| Raspberry Pi 5 | 2.4 and 5 GHz |
| Raspberry Pi 4 and 4B | 2.4 and 5 GHz |
| Raspberry Pi 3B+ | 2.4 and 5 GHz |
| Raspberry Pi 3B | 2.4 GHz only |
WPA3 is not available on this model. It needs a Player Max.
WPA2-PSK and 802.1X both work. See Connect on an enterprise network.
Displays
How many screens one player drives depends on its Raspberry Pi generation: a Pi 4 or Pi 5 drives two through its micro HDMI outputs, and a Pi 3 drives one. Both show the same picture. See Driving more than one display.
What it does not do
No 4K, and no TPM or Secure Boot. Those are properties of the board, so no software setting adds them. For any of the three you need a Player Max.
Power
Use the official Raspberry Pi power supply for the board. Third-party supplies deliver power inconsistently, which shows up later as a screen that reboots or freezes at random, and reads as a software fault.
