Click “Login” - if successful you will be in the management console of Xibo – Congratulations. Now you need to install the Xibo Player Client – Note: this will cause it to launch each time you start up the PC. You can use the “Windows” key and close the window followed immediately by opening taskmanager and killing the xibo watchdog that will continue to reopen it.

Once it is licensed you can assign layouts, schedules, etc. to that display or place it in a group that allows all of that group to play the same content. The Manual with instruction is located at: – Use Tight VNC to remote to the desktop because it allows us to make changes while it is still live. HDMI over Ethernet streams to each location form a central server but you can also use individual computers or try RasberryPi devices to create individual displays that have their own scheduled layouts. Standard Best Buy Televisions or Commercial Grade digital TVs both work well. Note buy TVs that can be set to auto turn on and off on a schedule.
