Quick Guide¶
The following steps will enable anyone to quickly load and run content in Laqorr. More comprehensive details about the process can be found in the following pages of this user manual.
There are three essential actions - load content, assign it to a playlist and match that to players in a group.
Let’s get started
Load Content¶
Navigate to CONTENT / VIDEOS AND IMAGES. Click NEW / SELECT FILES and find the image or video you want to load. Once they have uploaded, click ADD DETAILS and give the files a start and end date.
Complete information about managing media files can be found here.
Assign it to a Playlist¶
Next, navigate to CONTENT / PLAYLISTS. Click NEW and give the Playlist a name. All available files will appear in a window on the left. Drag those you want to play into the window on the right.
Match this to Players in a Group¶
Finally, navigate to NETWORK / GROUPS, click NEW and give the Group a name. Think of it it in a conceptual, rather than geographic, sense as all the players in this group will show the same content from the same playlist(s).
Halfway down the page, click PLAYLISTS under the Feeds tab. Choose a playlist to add to the Group.
You can also have the playlist run on certain days, at certain times or for certain periods. (Read more)
Now scroll down to the Players feed at the bottom and assign players by moving them into the left hand, Member Players window. All players in this space will run the same Playlist(s) you have assigned to this Group.
Generally speaking, once a Group has been established only steps 1 and 2 will need to be done for regular scheduling updates: load a file, adjust a playlist. Laqorr takes care of the rest.
