Software plays a major role in making sure the right Digital Signage content clips reach the correct screens. It ensures that a venue’s visitors are greeted with the right segments. Behind the scenes, a number of applications work to organize, push, and record the loops that play across your network. Many people are confused about digital signage these days, they’re all asking the question, “What Is Digital Signage?”.

Most people are unfamiliar with the types of software involved in a Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) system. Moreover, most are unaware of what each application contributes. We’ll describe the details below, beginning with the software that organizes your network’s playlists. You’ll learn how your content travels throughout the network to eventually reach the screens. Once your content has been loaded onto a central server, it needs to be organized and managed. This is done in a content management system (CMS). This is an application that provides a bird’s-eye view of your clips, and allows you to place them into separate folders for better management. You can also move segments back and forth between folders as you put together playlists.

The CMS allows you to create loops that will play uninterrupted on your screens. In most cases, you’ll schedule them by order and time. You’ll be able to create distinct playlists for each day, or do so for different periods throughout the day. For example, you might build one loop for Mondays, another for weekday evenings, and a third for Thanksgiving. Each can be scheduled well in advance, and be expected to play as intended. The latest, and possibly the most effective new advertising and marketing tool since the Internet, is the new medium of digital signage. Also known as electronic signage, this dynamic media, with its Flash technology, massive and not-so-massive display screens, its sharply focused LCD ad player screens, its motion, sound, and color is clearly the future in mass marketing. Narrowcasting networks, LCD-dominated advertising kiosks, electronic billboards, all offer a solution to your point-of-purchase advertising needs, among many other advantages.

With this emerging new marketing medium, of course, come emerging difficulties, including cost issues, return-on-investment (ROI) questions, the adaptability of the technology to various methods of programming, an as-yet-unproven record of success within the advertising and marketing industry, and a plain lack of understanding of the technology and systems involved. This lack of understanding encompasses not only the hardware and software, but installation and programming parameters, as well. Unfortunately, this lack of understanding was often expressed by venders of digital signage technology, as well as users. A lack of interoperability, as well as what’s known as a complex value chain, also complicates and sometimes even compromises the effectiveness of this innovative technology.

The software described thus far is essential to most digital signage systems, regardless of whether you are handling everything in-house, or relying upon third party content streams. If you are sourcing content from third-party streams, you are unlikely to have the server on site. The CMS will normally be accessed through a web browser. You can also invest in applications that are designed to help you create content in house, and integrate ad spots within your playlists. WiredUp Installations offer Digital Signage installation for great prices so you don’t have to worry about installing anything or dealing with any complex areas of electronics, WiredUp installation can both explain and install all your Digital Signage for you.
