What is Signagelive’s Web Content Licence?

The Web Content License enables you to manage and display web-based content, such as web page URLs or apps, from the Signagelive Marketplace. This is an ideal solution for projects that require displaying specific content, like dashboards or applications, without needing the additional content types included in the Standard Licence (see Supported Content below).

Please Note

The Web Licence does not support the display of images or videos that are directly uploaded to the Signagelive platform. To display videos with a Web Licence, you must use our YouTube app.

Whilst there are content types that are unsupported by the Web Content Licence, there's a ton of great features you can still make the most of with this Licence including:

  • Access to Signagelive's Layout Designer

  • The ability to manage your devices remotely from your Player Dashboard

  • Access to a collection of FREE apps from our Marketplace

What Players support the Web Content Licence?

All Signagelive-supported hardware can run the Web Content Licence, but this Licence type really shines when paired with the FREE Browser Player. The Browser Player does exactly what it says on the tin: It allows you to display Signagelive within a web browser.

If you choose to run the Web Content Licence on hardware that is already supported, you can always upgrade to a Standard Licence at any time should your content requirements change.

Who is the Web Content Licence for?

The web content licence is for people who want a cost-effective way to manage their digital signage but only require the display of URLs, web applications, or apps.
