Set a maximum duration per playslist/show
set a maximum duration per (sub)playlist or show, the user can not exceed this time.
for example : I have lot of playlists on a monitor.
the #1 show corporate video (the duration is automatic) and the others are managed by different services but they only have the ability to broadcast a message for 30 seconds.
We should be able to assign a maximum duration for each playlist
and keep control of the total duration of the broadcast loop.4 votesSub-Playlist Restrictions are here!
When you add a Playlist as an item in another Playlist, then a “Options” button appears. Click it will allow you set the Max-Time and/or Max-Items. The first will define the total Playback time allow for each iteration of that Sub-Playlist, while the second will restrict the number of items played back. When using any of the two options and a Playlist is interrupted, the next playback of the Playlist will be picked up from the next item.
These two can be combined to have the effect described by the original poster of the idea. Sub-Playlists are only available in the “Pro” and “Enterprise” plans, so you will need to be on that plan to use Restrictions for Sub-Playlists.
Combine with access rights and Workspaces, this can be ideal for managing distributed content managers that need to be limited on the total screen time!
Enjoy!

User Customizable Screenshot timeframe or on demand screenshot
It would be nice if users had the option to manually select the amount of time at which the platform creates a screenshot for each monitor, not all deployment run on unlimited data and must save precious data capacity where needed.
for example i just found myself in a situation where we are running deployments on 4g modems with 2gb data plans, for content delivery and monitoring. the screenshot runs every 30 seconds as long as your online and every 2 hours if you are offline and each screenshot is about 76 KB in zise. let's say you have 10…
4 votesThis is now available. No matter if you are online or not, screenshots of all Players are refreshed every 2 hours. If you open the details of a specific Monitor, then the specific Player will start uploading screenshots every 30 seconds, and 5 minutes after you leave that page, it will return back to uploading new screenshots every 2 hours.
This should severely reduce bandwidth since, in most cases, you do not need to go into that page. This way, traffic for screenshots should be reduced to less than 1MB per day.

Restrict media to player as relevant
My impression is that all media is pushed to all players. My most dynamic player may be overloading other players within my account that have a much simpler scope.
One player is a communication piece with multi media content. Other players are simple static images (digital menus.) Why push all the multimedia on to these simple scope devices?
1 votePlayers only download Media that they need to playback. Not ALL media from the account is downloaded to ALL Players. So, the behavior you are describing is exactly the behavior Yodeck provides.
Closing this suggestion as “Completed” since this is the behavior currently.

Dynamic playlist length calculation
When adding multiple media to a playlist it would be nice to have a box / indicator stating the total duration of the playlist itself
6 votesThis was released last week! You now see the total duration of a playlist as you edit it!
Existing videos don’t have the length information required, but new videos you upload will have that information, so they will be added correctly to the total duration in a playlist.

schedules reboot
It would be great to be able to schedule an auto reboot. Some of my players need to be rebooted 2 or 3 times a week.

Vpn connectivity
Would be nice to have an option for outgoing IPSEC or sstp vpn connectivity to a custom vpn server.
Reason for this : Multiple installations across client sites, network monitoring (device ping would be great) and ssh login without need from customer site network reconfiguration or port forwarding.
2 votesWe already provide this option to our Partners! You can setup an OpenVPN-based VPN connection to an online server, and this can be automatically configure to all devices in your partner account.

Custom aspect ratios
We are planning to use Yodeck on big LED displays which are built with 32x32 modules. It works fine otherwise, but it's not very intuitive if aspect ratio does not match on the Show editor.
For example, display has 480*96 resolution. This is 16:3.2 .. Yodeck has choices 16:4.5 and 16:3, which means 480x135 or 480x90. When editing with 16:4.5, you have to remember not put anything on the bottom or it won't be visible.
So, why can't I set the aspect ratio to any custom values?
3 votesSupport for custom aspect ratios has been released. It should make managing non-typical screens, video walls, and LED matrix displays much easier.

Status of the Download to the player on the Dashboard
We should have the Status of the content downloading to the player, Now its highly uncertain to know when it can happen.
1 voteThere is now a new icon in the “Monitors” listing that indicates the Content status on each Player. This allows you to see if everything is alright and Players have the latest content, even if they are currently offline.

Adding add/remove buttons to the top of the media pages.
Instead of having to scroll down the page to add media to any category, like images, it would be convenient to have the buttons at the top of the page as well.

WIFI - on site manual choosing by client or technician
Option to manually enter WIFI name and password directly to "Player". This would be really appreciated.
e.g.: Client connects keyboard and mouse. After pressing some keyboard shortcut(e.g. ALT+W) graphic window will pop up and allow to choose wifi and set password.

CSS CUSTOMIZATION
Info about the CSS customization
1 voteWe provide full CSS customization. Out of the box, this is available as a feature to our Whitelabel reselling partners, so that they can use their own branding. We do not see frequent requests on CSS customization by direct customers for their own organization.
