Re: [MCN-L] Digital signage recommendations

[Patrick Davis]

I will say the latest Brightsign offerings works very well with large
syncing projects. I have a exhibit running 9 of the 4k242 players (but I
have also done 5 HD222 players) all synced together doing audio and video.
The biggest headache is you have to create individual files for each player
if you need audio off of each one, but the syncing does work.

Re: [MCN-L] Digital signage recommendations

[Mark Mangoba]

At the Petersen Automotive Museum, we use Bright Sign for our large LED wall 
and Visitor Services screens (donor wall, admission, museum store, etc.).

For exhibit related content, we use Medialon (for remote) and Watchout (product 
from Dataton), this is a bit expensive and hasn't been as stable - the IT team 
here and I have been working on a Bright Sign replacement, but since many or 
our content reside on multiple servers and projectors, Bright Sign has its 
limits with scaling/syncing large content (example, we have an exhibit with 10 
projectors running at the same time - both audio and video).

We use dboard at the new museum (http://www.d-board.net)
It's Wordpress based and self hosted. We run the players as chrome based kiosks 
with ajax scheduling. It's simple and easy.

Good afternoon,

The Albright-Knox Art Gallery also uses Brightsign for digital signage and we 
are very satisfied with the hardware.  We also use Brightsign to power many of 
our new media artworks.

 
Thank you for your time.

We use Brightsign for all the informational digital signage at SFMOMA, it's 
solid. The only issue is the lack of professional services from Brightsign, so 
there can be a lot of staff time spent getting everything working they way you 
want it.

We've also developed a custom Cinder application (and supporting web based CMS) 
for the large 6 and 12 screen arrays in the museum's atriums as there wasn't an

Re: [MCN-L] Digital signage recommendations

We've had good luck with Xibo.
I know several museums are using Scala with success as well.
I don't have personal experience with Brightsign, but I've heard it's an
effective solution.
All the best,
Douglas

[MCN-L] Digital signage recommendations

[Alex Garcia]

Hello,

Does anyone have any recommendations for digital signage solutions?  We have 
some digital signs that display announcements and upcoming events.  We’re 
interested in a cloud based solution but are open to hosting the sign content.  
We’ve got computers already hosting sign players so would prefer a solution  
where we can continue using those computers but are open to solutions that have 
their own sign player hardware.

Thank you
