Managing Displays
Monitor and control all your screens from one central dashboard. January 12, 2026
Monitor and control all your screens from one central dashboard.
Understanding status indicators
Each display shows a colored status so you can quickly see what's happening:
- Live — the display is online and connected to the internet.
- Offline — the display isn't connected (turned off or no internet).
- Sync — the display has the latest content and is playing correctly.
- Out of Sync — new content is waiting to download.
️ Offline playback: Once content is downloaded, it keeps playing even if the internet goes out. Displays only need to be online to receive new content.
Changing display content
- Find your display — Go to Displays and locate the screen you want to update.
- Click the replace icon — In the "Now Playing" column, click the small icon next to the current content.
- Select new content — Choose a media file, playlist, or schedule.
- Save — Click Save and the new content starts playing within a minute.
Remote controls
On supported devices, you can manage hardware without visiting it:
- Live Snapshot — capture a screenshot of what's currently playing.
- Remote Reboot — restart displays remotely without physical access.
- Power Schedule — set displays to turn on and off automatically at specific times.
- Replace Display — swap hardware while keeping all settings and playlists intact.
