Screen Takeover

The Screen Takeover feature allows you to override a screen’s default or scheduled content to display ad hoc content. This is useful for situations like announcements or special events. While you can always reassign default content on a per-screen basis, the Screen Takeover feature enables you to temporarily assign content to multiple screens quickly.

How to takeover a screen:

  • Select the screens you want to take over.
  • Click on Actions, then choose Takeover Screen.

Alternatively, you can:

  • Go to a specific screen’s Configuration page and select Takeover.
  • Select a piece of media, click Actions, then choose Set to Screen, and select Takeover.

The takeover can last as long as you specify, or it can be displayed indefinitely.
