New Digital Signage Enhancements

Post by mjstrand »

We have made some enhancements that attract additional attention to digital signage screens when using StrandVision Digital Signage. These are automatically included at no additional charge to you.

1) The test drive now allows PowerPoint files to be added. We also created progress bars when uploading all images and powerpoint files so that it does not look like it locked up.

2) Scrolling paragraphs are broken apart and are animated to fly in and out. This also properly allows up to 1000 records to be displayed on one page when using the database feature.

3) Created a Business Hours page that uses what is configured for your business hours.

4) Animated backgrounds for the following pages if no photo is setup to display with it: Newspaper and RSS Feeds, Company Information (mission, vision and address info), Business Hours, Weather, Currency Rates (or Dual Price Page) and StrandVision customer testimonials.

5) The standalone player system has been changed to create a .zip file instead of a .tgz file. It also requires that you be logged in to create this file. This is useful for trade shows or customer demonstrations without Internet access.

If you run into any issues with these (or have suggestions for background animation adjustments), please let us know.
Mike is president of StrandVision Digital Signage and also does business marketing consulting through MikeStrand.com.
