Playbacks in TelemetryOS

Playbacks in TelemetryOS automate the delivery of content across digital signage networks. This feature enables organizations to control what content is displayed, when it appears, and on which devices, supporting a wide range of communication and scheduling needs.

Core Concepts

• A Playback defines a set of content, scheduling parameters, and device targets.
• Content can include images, videos, and applications.
• Scheduling options allow for start and end times, recurrence, and dayparting.
• Device targeting supports individual screens, groups, or locations.

Use Cases

• Automated campaigns deliver marketing or informational content at scheduled intervals.
• Dayparting enables different content to be shown during specific periods, such as business hours or weekends.
• Event-based Playbacks support the display of content for special events, holidays, or emergency notifications.

Configuration

• Playbacks are managed within the TelemetryOS dashboard.
• Each Playback includes a name, associated content, schedule, and device assignments.
• Playbacks can be edited to update content, schedules, or device targets.
• The system supports pausing, resuming, or deactivating Playbacks without deletion.
• Playback status and history are available for monitoring and auditing.

Considerations

• Descriptive naming conventions improve the manageability of Playbacks.
• Logical grouping of devices (by location, department, etc.) simplifies targeting.
• Testing Playbacks on a limited set of devices is recommended before large-scale deployment.
