Application scenario
Communicate with teams in multiple locations
An internal event is held at a central location and colleagues in several buildings need to follow it. The content owner defines a valid stream URL and the destination displays. Before the event, verify source and player compatibility and network quality at every destination. Also define the content schedule before and after the stream so each display returns to an orderly experience when the event ends.
Application details and app tools
- Live-Stream URL
- Presence on the channel
- Publishing on the screen
Path from preparation to on-site use
Prepare authorized source
Specify the stream address and playback permission and check the destination device’s access to the source.
Select the show program
Put the live stream on the channel and app that fits the event.
Review at destination
Verify video and audio playback and connectivity on the actual player and display.
Coordinate the solution with the dimensions of the collection
A hall display can be a publishing destination. For multiple locations, account for network capacity, data sources and differences between players in the publishing plan.
Questions to ask before choosing
Does Every Video URL Work as a Live Stream?
Stream type and compatibility with the destination player and browser are decisive. Test the source URL on the actual equipment before the event.
How does the content behave when disconnected?
A live stream requires a connection to its source. Match media-player capabilities and stale-content policies to the conditions at each location.
What information is required to receive a suitable demo?
Introduce the place of use, the number of displays or kiosks, the audience of the content and the source of the information. The demo should show the actual way of using your collection so that the layout and service model can be selected based on the needs.
