Your First Image on a Screen
Use ordinary cloud casting to create one image program, send it to one device and check the actual screen. Prepare an internet-connected TV, signage device or playback computer, plus a phone or computer for management.
The Admin app creates and casts programs. The Player app runs on the device showing the content. Install each app on the appropriate device.
1. Install and open the Player
Get the Player installer from this site's download entry or your device supplier. For Android, choose Compatibility if you do not know the OS version or the differences between editions. Choose Standard for full features and performance after confirming Android 7.0 or later.
Leave the Player on its main screen. During playback, press Back on the remote to return there; double-tap is for touch devices without a remote. See the Player overview.
2. Open the Admin app and sign in
Use the Web Admin supplied by your deployment in a browser on your computer or phone; installing an Admin app is optional. Register if needed, then sign in to your cloud account.
Confirm the Admin is using the cloud service. Start with one small image before adding large videos, multiple regions or schedules.
3. Bind the display device
Read the dynamic device code in the Player's cloud casting section. In the Admin app, open My Devices, choose Bind New Device, enter the code currently shown on the TV and confirm.
The device should now appear in your list. For screenshots and error handling, see binding a device.
4. Create a single-region program and add an image
Open Programs, create a program, choose landscape or portrait to match the screen, then use a single-region layout. Select that sub-screen, add image media, choose your file and wait for the upload to complete.
Preview and Save. Accounts requiring review must complete submission and approval before casting. See creating from scratch, adding media and saving programs.
5. Cast and check the TV
Choose Cast on the saved program, select your bound device, keep the default schedule for this first test and confirm. Wait for the Player to synchronize.
The first test succeeds when the TV actually shows your image. A successful submission or an online device alone does not prove playback. See the complete cloud casting workflow.
