What is a Scenario and how does it work?

The Scenarios allow you to activate content on multiple displays at the same time.

In a single command they can:
  1. Launch playlists on different displays
  2. Enable Live Sync synchronization
  3. Run Flow
They are ideal for:
  1. Coordination between multiple screens (events, retail, museums)
  2. Immersive audio/video experiences

Create a scenario

<><>

To create a scenario you need to go to Apps > Scenarios.



Here you will find the view with all the scenarios created and you will be able to:
  1. Create a new scenario
  2. Filter existing scenarios by tag
  3. Search for a scenario by name
  4. Run a scenario by hovering over it and clicking “Run”
  5. Click on an existing scenario to edit it

Activate a Scenario

You can start a scenario in three ways:
  1. From the main view of the scenarios, by clicking on “Run”
  2. From the scenario sheet, by clicking on the “Play” symbol
  3. Through API, for integration with external systems

Vista Tablet

Livesignage offers one simplified view designed for tablets:
  1. Interfaccia touch-friendly
  2. List of available scenarios
  3. Instant start with one touch
Ideal for:
  1. Staff in showrooms or shops
  2. Operator in events directs
  3. Use by non-technical personnel

Warnings

  1. Each display in the Scenario must be properly connected to the network to update the contents; otherwise it will maintain the previous playback
  2. If you enable a Live Sync, all displays involved in the sync must be part of the Scenario; otherwise some displays may be left waiting for others to play.
  3. Do not enable two Live Syncs with at least one display in common
  4. Check the actions of the associated Flows: they may modify the contents of the displays
  5. Avoid circular loops where a Scenario triggers a Flow that calls the same Scenario.
