With the launch of Mediacast 4.0, we added a new feature that's going to be huge for all of our MediaTile customers, including those running employee communications networks. With the previous broadcast portal (our online digital signage software), you could preview individual piees of content separately, but NOT your full playlists of multi-zone playlists.
But now with Mediacast you can.
This preview feature will give you a "live" look at what your viewers would be seeing on their screens. What you see above is a three-zone layout, which includes a weather feed from Accuweather and US News in the bottom ticker. The feature produces a low-resolution look so it's not something you'd want to reproduce for other purposes, but it's a great way to make sure your digital signage content is going to be shown the way you want it to.
When I had my own network, I purchased a screen for my office so that not only could I test content but I could also monitor it throughout the day. Even with the new preview feature, I still recommend network managers having a screen close by.
