Dynamic, On-The-Fly, Slideshows for SIGNAGE

Postby SoonerLater » Sun Jan 16, 2011 5:59 am

I need to create some electronic signage for a large meeting. I'll use a LCD panel with standard VGA input. What I need is to have a "bin" where the slideshow app will display whatever files I put in the 'bin" on the LCD panel. I don't want to have to re-create the slideshow every time I need to change the content. I just want to throw files into the bin (and delete files from the bin) and have the slideshow app react dynamically. Is there anyway to make any of the ProShow products monitor a folder and dynamically create a slideshow based on the content of the folder? The parameters you would need to be able to control include:

* Folder to be monitored
* Frequency of checking the folder for changed content
* Transition method

Hi,

I think that the live option in Producer answers your request.

Here is a tutorial made by Photodex that explains this feature:
