Right. It is really easy

but it will help if you know:

linux operating system

php script

mysql database

apache web server

wiki server

It will take many lines to describe each step.

In person, it could be explained if you did not understand a step.

drawings and video clips could be included.

The video needs to be compressed to reduce size and increase speed.

An index of all files needed

unique file name for each picture for each page

unique file name for each audio for each page

The display time must be set to match the audio time

To display online produce an MP4 video file

compress the video

upload video file to host

create a link on a webpage to call the video file

ok, did I miss anything?

Connect with Wi-Fi to ASAxxx

Go to web page 10.10.10.10

If using a display monitor

look at the Lower Left Corner

click on the Raspberry Start button

Then click on Shutdown in the drop down menu.

A power glitch may damage the micro SD card memory

It is best to have a battery backup
