Getting Started with the Signagelive Licence Manager

Written by Ian Maison

Within your Signagelive Network is a Licence Manager where you are able to add, renew, deactivate or remove any of your licences at any given time. For every connected Media Player device on your network to connect to our server you will require a licence, so within this area you are able to fully manage your licences and ensure they remain activated and well organised.

Please Note

The following article focuses on the Licence Manager and the features available, so if you are looking to perform certain actions on your licences already, then please review the following:

Where is the Licence Manager?

To navigate to the Licence Manager, please follow the below steps:

  • Within your Signagelive network, please click on the Settings menu.

  • From the drop down menu, please select Licences and you will be taken to the Licence Manager

What information is tracked in the Licence Manager?

The dashboard displays a comprehensive list of every licence on your network along with these explicit data points:

  • Hardware & Registration: Player, Serial Number, Code (16-digit), and Registered Date.

  • Licence Specifications: Licence Type, Licenced Features, Duration, and Max Outputs

What do the licence status colors mean?

The dashboard uses a simple, color-coded tracking system so you can instantly verify player statuses:

Status Color

Name

Current State

White

Unregistered

The licence is fresh, brand new, and ready to be used for the first time.

🟢 Green

Active

The licence is currently running and actively assigned to a working player.

🟡 Orange

Deactivated

The licence is unlinked from its player and is ready to be reused elsewhere.

🔴 Red

Expired

The licence validity has ended and it can no longer be used.

How do I search and filter my licences?

To help manage a large volume of media players, you can look up specific licences or narrow down upcoming expiration dates using built-in search and filtering tools:

Searching your inventory

You can search directly by entering any of the following details into the dashboard search bar:

  • A 16-digit licence code

  • A hardware serial number

  • Associated media player information

Filtering by expiration date

You can instantly filter your view to focus exclusively on licences that match these specific timelines:
