MediaSignage: introducing RemoteTouch – it’s what you’ve been waiting for..

RemoteTouch is probably the most exciting feature we released to date. Imagine if you could extend your Digital Signage screens right onto your audience’s hand held devices, allowing them full control over which content to watch and to make selections; well imagine no more. RemoteTouch can do all that and a lot more.

With RemoteTouch your audience can use their smart phones (iPhone, Android, etc) to scan a QR code and remotely control the screen in front of them. When users tap on the menu displayed on their mobile phones, the corresponding content will be presented on the Digital Signage screens; it’s as simple as that.

RemoteTouch includes:

Timeline switching through events
Collection navigation through events
Dynamic QR code generation per screen
Client side support for HTML5 / JavaScript
Intelligent screen access mechanism
Remote API to send screen commands
Working samples and source code

MediaSignage begins to ship the mediaDROID V2

The mediaDROID already revolutionized Digital Signage forever.

In fact, we never had so many companies choose DigitalSignage.com over other provider as since we started shipping the mediaDROID ZX back in Jun, 2012.
And so we put a lot of effort to make the mediaDROID V2 even better. The mediaDROID V2 now ships with Android’s Jelly Bean OS to improve performance (especially with video playback) as well as a stronger Wi-Fi module and stronger USB soldering so the device can really take your abuse (and we know how you love to abuse it ;) ).
We released our new SignagePlayer 4.10 with Proof of play, Local Ads and resource expiration for Android last week and we are on schedule to release Stage3D with GPU hardware acceleration for the mediaDROID early next year.

So you can tell we are super excited about this product and we will keep pushing the envelope to make sure you get what you expect from the world’s most popular FREE Digital Signage company…

Thank you for your support and have a great happy new year.

The MediaSignage Support team.

mediaDROID ZXv now shipping

You asked for it so we delivered, the mediaDROID ZXv. With the mediaDROID ZXv you can run your Digital Signage presentations in vertical mode (also known as portrait).
The best part is that any HDMI screen can be used, so you don’t need to buy any special hardware; simply plug-in the mediaDROID ZXv to your favorite screen’s HDMI port, turn the screen over and build a presentation to the approprate resolution (for example: 1080 x 1920 instead of 1920 x 1080, it’s that simple), and let the mediaDROID take care of the rest.
