Flash and YouTube content for digital signs

Digital signage software Netpresenter Player 5.0 now supports Adobe Flash content and YouTube videos, enabling delivery and playback on PC desktops, large screens and mobile devices.

Because of the extended support in this version, users can include a broad range of dynamic content to their presentations, including Flash animations, live news feeds, live streaming video, TV channels, and even YouTube videos.

It also allows the addition of smooth running, CNN like, ticker tapes to the screens, and transparent GIF images, often used for weather and traffic maps.

"The new generation Player allows users to really spice up their digital signage and PC desktop presentations, screensaver and alert messages", said Frank Hoen, Netpresenter CEO.

"Making a presentation come to life has never been this easy".

The new version of the Netpresenter Player also offers so-called dashboard functionality.

This ensures current database content, including sales graphs, live financial data and customer retention stats, can be added to the Netpresenter presentation.

"By feeding database content to Netpresenter, slides can now contain even more types of information", said Hoen.

"Many companies want to share figures on support calls handled, client wins and other corporate statistics with their employees in real-time in order to give staff the feeling they are valued and trusted.

"After all, research shows, effective employee communication can spell the difference between retaining employees and losing them".

Netpresenter Player 5.0 supports all Windows versions, from Windows 2000 through to Vista, including thin clients and Windows XP Embedded.
