SignagePlayer / Re: Signage Player does not run under Ubuntu 9.10

« on: March 23, 2010, 11:15:00 AM »

I've been running the signage player on 12 computers, all of which have Ubuntu 9.10.  I can safely say the install process is exactly the same, more importantly the programs run 1000% more stable in Linux than it ever did using windows xp.

General discussion on the mediaCLOUD / User names and passwords

« on: December 17, 2009, 02:22:59 PM »

Q1: What would happen to your stations if you change your user name or password from the studio?  Would that unregister the stations? 

Q2: When will we be able to create a separate user name and password for the stations so I can feel comfortable giving that info out without worrying about them logging into the studio?  (luckily they don' t know how to at this point)

Report bugs and errors / Re: Player stops playing

That solved a problem, but I am still having issues with the player crashing.  Most of the time the signage controller restarts the player but today a few of my screens ended up just sitting with a blank screen until I restarted the computer.

This is happening to me often without making any changes in the studio.  Sometimes the presentation never starts back up.  Please help!

I have been having the same problem, most of the time it plays fine but it's also crashing 6-8 times a day.  The Signage controller does restart the player but ocasionally it doesn't work.  Another issue that may be realated is that the program gets stuck in the black screen says "signage presentation will resume momentarily" and nothing ever happens.

Any updates on the status of GPU support in Adobe Air and the AirPlayer?  Also, will MP4 run better the FLV currently?

SignagePlayer / Re: Please URGENT!! Airplayer don't work offline (port 336)

« on: July 10, 2009, 08:32:55 AM »

I've never been able to get the player to run my content if I start the computer in offline mode.  This is a huge issue for me because it is a pain trying to find a wifi connection everywhere I go.  The caching engine works to the extent that once it starts with an internet connection, I can disconnect the internet and it will still run, however it wont work if I restart the computer and the air player starts without a connection.  What could be the problem?  Any suggestions?

New features and suggestions / Shut down computer remotely

« on: June 29, 2009, 12:18:36 PM »

It would be nice if you could set a timed shutdown on the computer the Media Signage Player is running on, or shut down on demand.  Right now I've setup a scheduled task to shut down the computer, but it doesn't allow me to change  the time without logging into the computer.

Great to hear new features are available.  When can we expect to see some tutorials on using new features such as the advanced scheduler?

SignagePlayer / Re: Printing from Kiosk mode / web app

« on: June 03, 2009, 12:49:09 PM »

That's great, I have a website that has a print button on it, using javascript, normally when you click it, it activates the print dialog.  When I view the site through the AirPlayer no print dialog come up.  Do you have any suggestions for the best way for a web app to print when running in the air player?  Ideally it would just print and no print dialog would appear. 

FYI I'm not a programmer, however I do have a good understanding of basic programming techniques and am trying to get an idea of what to tell my developers to build.  Thanks!

New features and suggestions / Auto hide mouse pointer

Can you program the player to auto hide the mouse pointer?  It's annoying when it just sits in the middle of the screen.

Could you add an option for the player to maintain a resources original proportions instead of stretching to fit?

SignagePlayer / Re: Watchdog - will it restart my pc or player if connection does not work

« on: June 01, 2009, 12:02:46 PM »

The air player started without a connection but there was no content playing on the screen.  When I plugged my router back in to give it a live connection (confirmed by opening a browser) it still just cycled through those messages and never started playing the content.

SignagePlayer / Printing from Kiosk mode / web app

« on: June 01, 2009, 11:26:50 AM »

I have 3 questions.  First, can I allow a user to print from the kiosk mode?  Second can I use the kiosk mode to display a interactive web application that allow them to select jpeg's and print them on a receipt printer hooked to the computer?  What standards does the player support as far as web applications go?  (ie html, ajax, javascript, etc.)
