Xibo for Linux is not built for ARM so it won’t work on that device.

Hi, Thanks you for your response. If that is the case, can you please let us know what hardware requirements we should check for (for Linux)?

I can’t no. Whist the Player is in heavy development it’s not possible for us to give a specific spec that will be good for all use cases.

You’ll need to try it for your specific use case and work from there. I’d suggest avoiding Celeron/Atom based machines (the sticks etc) and go for a reasonable spec NUC or mid range PC. It must be 64 bit and it must be Intel architecture (ie not ARM, RISC etc). I’d recommend minimum 4GB RAM.
