Digital Content for Signage Applications
Content playback and management
Content is played to the displays of a digital signage network from at least one player machine. Various hardware and software options exist, providing a range of different ways to schedule and playback content. These range from simple, non-networked media players that can output basic loops of MPEG-2 video to complex, N-tier players networks that offer control over enterprisewide or campus wide displays at many venues from a single location.
The former are ideal for small groups of displays that can be updated via CD-ROM or USB flash drive, while the latter allows digital signage network operators to either push content to many players at once or have each player pull content from a server as needed.
The content displayed on digital signage screens can range from simple text and still images to full-motion video, with or without audio. Some operators of digital signage networks, particularly in the retail industry, regard their networks as comparable to television channels, displaying entertaining and informational content interspersed with advertisements.
