Published on by Lars Normark Andersen

Digital Signage Product Updates March 2017

In our latest release, we have some pretty amazing new stuff for you – starting with our Weekday slide condition. Also, we released Multi-Level Playlists, Video Input, Scripting for Android OS, and more.

Weekday slide condition

The day of week condition evaluates to true only on the days of the week you have selected (Monday, Tuesday, etc.). For example, if your store is closed on weekends, you can show an appropriate slide only on Saturday and Sunday.

Multi-level playlist in playlist plugin support (nested playlists).

Multi-level playlists (Nested Playlists) make it possible to nest playlists. For example, you have a master playlist (This is the one published to your TV), and in this playlist, you have a lower section and an upper section, each with its own playlist. So far, so good. With nested playlists, you can add a playlist in these two playlists.

Video input plugin.

Video Input gives you a bunch of new opportunities! Our App can recognize a video input, such as an HDMI to USB device, or, for example, a webcam connected to the player. This input can then be displayed in your content as a picture-in-picture.

This opens up almost any HDMI feed, like satellite TV, Live TV, YouTube TV, and much more.
