Add folders to better manage large media collections

Add support for Yodeck retrieving a media file from a URL instead of having to download and upload to Yodeck
It would be great to have an option for providing an image file or a video file from a URL instead of uploading to Yodeck. Files would still be stored on Yodeck servers, but the user won't have to download the media and upload it to Yodeck servers.
15 votesThis is now available! Yodeck can now fetch your files from a URL you provide.
Soon, we will also support connecting a Yodeck Playlist with a Google Drive folder or Dropbox, or other storage providers as well.

Provide Monitor Groups
Adding monitor groups would allow a user to group monitors and massively assign schedules to them.
9 votesWe have released tag-based management of monitors, so mass management is possible. And you can treat tags exactly like groups.
We will also add an option to “pin” several tags to the monitor’s list, so that you can have quick click-only access to some favorite groups.

Add fit/crop option for playback of images or videos
When playing a playlist of images or videos, the content is cropped to cover the whole area specified in the show editor. There should be an option to fit content inside the area. This way, when showing both landscape-sized and portrait-sized content in the same playlist, they will not be cropped and everything will show up correctly.

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.

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.

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.
I am closing this request as completed, since it is already possible. If you need CSS customization, reach out to our tech support with your request and we may be able to accommodate it.

Subfolders visible when creating playlist
If I can save videos in subfolders, I should be able to access those subfolders when making playlists. Otherwise, whats the point of subfolders?
1 voteYou need to enable the “Folder View” toggle on the top-right corner of the Playlist editor.
Go ahead and edit a playlist. If you enable the "Folder View toggle while in the editor, you will see a different user interface that allows you to use folder and manage higher number of Media easily.

Remote shell / reboot
It would be great to have remote access to the pi OS via the web portal (piSignage supports it).
Sometimes I need to reboot, or remotely shut down, and there's no way at the moment.
28 votesUsers now have a “Reboot” and “Shutdown” action within the Monitor details.
We still do not provide remote shell, but it is possible to do so. If you think there is a need for that, please post a new suggestion on the forum.

Not show the PDF icon but preview of content
When you have several PDFs in the media library, they all look the same in the playlist and available files in the library.
I like that I can easily identify that the current item is a PDF, but as with videos, I'd like a preview of the first page or similar. As of now there's a lot of mouse hovering to identify what PDF is what.
I suggest a small PDF icon in the bottom right, and a preview of what the PDF contains.
1 voteWe now provide thumbnails for all Documents (PDF, DOC, XLS, PPT).

7 votesWe have separated the part of the CMS-related device configuration, from the rest of the configuration that has to do with installation and networking. So, you can provide someone with access to devices without allowing them to mess around with network or other configuration.
