Advertising Engine and ad packages

Yes,
We are selling ads by the month in Indiana on rotation(restaurant & retail).  We tell advertisers the ad (10-12 seconds) will appear 10 times an hour minimum, 15 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We also place ads about the place our board is in (Example: tip your waitress...)and comical photographs to keep people looking.
We are just starting out and things may change, I'm sure.  Cost is set right now as follows:
1 month $50
3 months $45 per
6 months $35 per
12 @ $25
second ad or location add $10 per
ad change out $10 per instance
Plus charging for ad creation.
Pushing for the 12 month commitment prepay and keeping in mind that Election & county fair ads will only want a single month, they pay our premium of $50
We are in a rural area so the money is not as high as in a metro area.

Hey guys - me again lol

I set up my advertising player in my large screen zone - but I wanted to mix things like a weather RSS, some trivia and Did you knows that I update via my own rss feed.

For example I create a scene with a custom RSS component then just point it to my rss feed location however, my advertising player fills the whole zone for the whole hour. I tried to see if I could send a scene as a resource in my outgoing ad package but it really only lets me select resources, not scenes. I wanted that stuff to play every 2.5 minutes.

Any suggestions how I can share that zone and get my random fun screen viewing stuff mixed in?

Thanks,

Either use multiple screen divisions, or switch between the Ad component on the timeline and other components (RSS, MRSS etc...) within a single channel.

Hello -

Okay I tried the mixing up of ad player and scenes but for some reason the frame rate went to about 1 after it bounced back and forth a couple of times. It did that every time I rebooted or restarted the signage - worked smoothly for a few ad package - scene - ad package - scene then coughed up with a frame rate of 1.

So what I will probably do is try a couple of screen division layouts and every 2.5 min or so I'll have the full screen stuff shrink down so that a side bar can display a scene for 30 seconds or something - then back to full screen... we'll see how that pans out.

Also - is there a way to disable the 'auto rewind' of ads displayed via the ad package component? It finishes playing a video, then re-starts it again during the transition to the next ad.

Thanks guys.

Hello
We are based In France, Media Signage is great
V3 and the Ad engine seem more than great

But I have a small request 

In the Outgoing Ad part / Station Picker I would like to be able to select several station at the same time

I have a network of more than 100 stations, and I would like to be able to select batch of them without to pick them one by one...  do you think it is possible?

Thank You

Thomas

Yes it is in our road map.
In October we will be migrating everyone to 3.0 and at the end of October we will push on releasing alpha 3.1.
If all goes well, Starting Dec / Jan you will start seeing releases and new features on a weekly basis.

Regards

Hello

Great !!

so about the migration from V2 to V3,
Shall we wait that you will migrate our park
or do we have migrate our selvves each station to V2 to V3?

Because I would rather wait for you guys to migrate my V2 account in V3, than do each one of tham by myself...

thank you

thomas
