Enable user-agent modification
I'm writing a ddns javascript widget. It's working, but my ddns provider prefers that a custom user-agent header is sent with the http request.
At present, changing this is denied by the browser. Could it be enabled, please?
4 votesTomorrow, we are releasing Chrome support for Custom Widgets. Would that work for you?
Nevertheless, this is a valid request to be considered.

Ability to notify users of new content in media for their use.
We have multiple workspaces/users/screens across our enterprise. We would like to automatically notify users of new content being added to the Media gallery.
4 votesIndeed, the “workflow” part of Workspaces needs a bit of polishing.
However, implementing your suggestion would be a bit complex. Yodeck cannot tell when you are done adding Media on the Media Gallery. And if you work a lot on Media, this can be annoying, and at the end, could be just ignored by people.
Perhaps it would make sense to be able to explicitly send a predefined message (e.g. “New Media Available”, of course being editable) to all people on a Workspace.
To all subscribers receiving this or all new readers: Send over some more ideas and we will evaluate and let you know!

Face Book videos?
Ability to post videos that are on FB - the webpage option doesn't work for FB videos. YouTube video links work perfectly.
4 votesWe have not made any tests with Facebook videos. We will have to look into it in more detail.

Pricing
While the idea of yodeck is great, most people looking for a raspberry pi videowall system are trying to find an alternative to other expensive videowall systems out there. It truly defeats the purpose of using extremely affordable equipment paired with a susbcription fee that would in the end turn out to be more expensive.
Imagine honda selling $100,000 car in order to be sustainable? Some might buy them if they can afford them, but Hondas were made for very specific market (the ones who couldn't afford a Mercedes).
Imagine how cool it would be to actually be able to…

Sub-Playlist-Schedule by Weekday and Time
Random Subplaylists are amazing!
Even greater would be the ability to show a subplaylist only on specific days of the week or in a specific timeframe (e.g. from 12:00 - 14:00)
3 votesGenerally, we try to keep scheduling options in the Schedules section, to keep things clear and separate.
On the other hand, we are planning to provide advanced actions, commands, conditions and filters for Playlists. Your suggestion could be modelled as a special command or filtered.
We will be reviewing and revert when the time is right! Thanks!

Allow control of devices that support RS-232 over Ethernet.
Media Control via RS-232 over Ethernet.
3 votesWe do provide an option for a custom power script that allows you to override the way screen powering on/off works.
For what else would that make sense? Please provide more context and use-cases so that we can investigate in detail and evaluate how we could do something like this.

Default Slide Time Option
Hey there,
I wouldn't mind being able to change the default slide time for when you add new slides. Rather than having to change it from 5 secs each time. Cheers!3 votesYou can change to “Folder View” and massively change duration for all your slides.
But yes, this could be useful as an option for each User.

X86 Support
X86 Support
1 voteWe supported x86 until Jan 2017. Adoption was really, really low, since a) we provide the Player for free to direct customers, and b) using the Raspberry Pi saves you so much on electricity, recovering the cost of the RPi within a couple of years.
We are planning to develop soon an HTML5-based player, so this could be easily wrapped to work on x86 hardware.
Stay tuned for updates.

Event-Date
I use Yodeck to show upcoming events. The TVs are showing the eventflyers with date on the flyer.
I would like to make flyers without date and set the date in the yodeck-app, so it is displayed together with the flyer. And when date is over, it is not shown in playlist anymore or is shown with the next date set for that event.
That would be a nice upgrade.
1 voteThere is a way to do that already with image-based flyers. To do this, you will be using 3 features:
1) Yodeck in-app image editing with layers
2) Expiration dates for Media
3) [optionally] Tag-based Playlists (available in Pro Plan)So, try doing the following:
- Upload your flyers as images
- Edit your flyer using the Pixie editor (in-app editor) and add the date as a text layer, and save
- Add the valid period for the event as starting/expiring dates in the Image details
- Add a Tag named EventFlyers
- Say a flyer is for a recurring event. You can duplicate this Media (click the duplicate button), edit the date text using Pixie with the new dates, and again enter them in the starting/expiring date. Make sure the Tag EventFlyers is still there.
- Create a Tag-based Playlist that uses all Media with the EventFlyers Tag.

Move add/edit/delete icons to left
Would like to see add/edit/delete icons (actions) moved to the left of the screen near the item name, i.e. monitor name. On larger monitors, that is a lot of mouse travel to get to the most clicked part of the page
1 voteWe are planning to provide a way to customize the listing columns, so this could be considered. Until that time comes, I am marking this suggestion to be reviewed.

Auto Delete after last reference in schedules option for media, playlists and shows.
A checkbox in each section to remove media, playlists, shows etc on a certain date or after last reference across all schedules.
1 voteWe do provide an Expiration Date for Media, but it does not delete the Media. It might make sense to delete the Media altogether.
Could you please let us know more usage details on why a Playlist/Show might need to be deleted on a date? That resemble a “Campaign”-like feature that is in our plans to provide. Let us know more details so that we can udnerstand the need and suggest a proper way to deal with it.

Facebook Live Stream
Integrate services with Facebook Live.
1 voteIt is difficult to support Facebook Live Streams. Under the hood, we are using livestreamer, so this software does not yet support Facebook live.
Here is the feature request for livestreamer:
https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer/issues/1259
If they add it, we will update and it will be supported as well.

Auto-import of UI JSON schema
To simplify widget installation, it would be nice if the back-end could look for a json file (maybe ui.json or schema.json) in the widget's zip file, and import it automatically into the UI configuration area if it exists.
1 voteSounds reasonable, but it is difficult to implement this feature now. Uploaded zip packages are delivered directly to our cloud storage, not going through the application server. We would have to extract the JSON UI Schema file from the package. And this would also have other workflow issues (what happens if it is broken, etc).
I am leaving this feature here to see what traction it gets from other users.

Ability to adjust the black gap time been slides.
I find the black gap between videos or images is too short. I've been adding in 2 second black slides to help but it would be nice if we could customize the length of time between for the black gap instead of only having it preset.
1 voteThe duration of the black gap is not entirely under our control right now. Your request is reasonable though.
We are planning a major internal change to the Player’s software that will allow us finer control of the playback procedure. I will leave this request open so that I can update it if we get any update from the dev team if it is feasible or not.
