Is there any plans for a ARM based compile for Raspbery Pi's? I woudl like to see if that improves my logout issues on our HUD, a Pi 4 @GB.

I have to tell you that there are currently no plans to provide a special ARM image of the PRTG Desktop app. Can you please let me know, what's the exact issue. Does PRTG Desktop logout itself after some time?

Kind regards,

The Desktop app does not work at all on the Pi, the webpage was logging us out every couple of hours, which is not good for an unattended HUD display.

I could try and add more extensions to Chromium and force hard page reloads to avoid timeouts, but as you have a tool, that I believe is an Electron app at that I figured I'd ask if there was a version for ARM processors like the Pi

Ok, thank you for clarification. If you use the standard PRTG webinterface on your HUD display, then you will be logged out after a certain amount of time. To prevent this, you could use MAPs, which do not require a login and therefore won't log out. For more information about maps, please take a look here:
