How can I make a digital menu board without buying media players?

A digital menu board on your TVs without a media player

Run a menu board across the TVs above your counter using the TVs themselves: Samsung Frames or LG TVs need nothing plugged in.

Most digital menu board services put a small player box behind every TV and charge a monthly fee per screen. If your TVs are Samsung Frames or LG webOS TVs, they can show the menu on their own, run from a computer you already have.

What you can do

Spread the menu across two or three TVs side by side, switching together.
Show breakfast items until 11 and lunch after, automatically (each item can have its own hours and days).
Run specials only on certain dates, like a seasonal drink.
Turn the TVs on before opening and off at closing.
Update a price once and every TV shows it.

What you need

Samsung Frame or LG webOS TVs (or any TV with a Fire TV stick).
A Windows computer that stays on in the shop, on the same network as the TVs.
Your menu as pictures: one picture per TV, sized 1080 × 1920 for TVs hung tall or 1920 × 1080 for wide.
