CONFIRE SHOWTIME at a glance
With CONFIRE SHOWTIME you can create, manage and publish digital content to public displays. Add your text, photos, graphics, videos, PDFs, HTML as well as weather information, messages and the latest timetable data to a project creatively and then broadcast it to any number of displays.
Easy to install
CONFIRE SHOWTIME comes in two parts: A designer and a player. Install the free designer on any computer you wish to make and publish the designs on and install the player on the public displays which receive and play the content. That's it! You don't require a central server or an internet connection.
Beautiful and flexible layouts
An intuitive designer allows you to place graphical elements on hierarchically arranged layouts quickly and efficiently. Photos, videos and PDFs can be made into sildeshows with just a few mouse clicks. Insert and edit text directly using the integrated Markdown editor and if desired utilize the full power of CSS to fine-tune the smallest of graphical details.
Perfect Integration of Timetables
No matter what timetable software you are using CONFIRE SHOWTIME can integrate your timetable information as imported PDFs or HTML websites. However, the real fun comes when using DAVINCI timetable software. CONFIRE SHOWTIME is fully integrated with DAVINCI WEBBOX enabling you to elegantly present timetables, substitution plans and floorplans visually.
News, Weather, ...
The heart of CONFIRE SHOWTIME is apps, HTML5-based elements with complex content. As mentioned already DAVINCI integration is an example of that but CONFIRE SHOWTIME also includes some apps such as: a weather app for displaying the latest weather information, a news app for displaying RSS feeds as well as a clock app for displaying the current time (analog or digital). And that's just the beginning. We're already working on new apps everyday.
Create your own apps
Already familiar with HTML, CSS and javascript? Then you can develop your own apps for CONFIRE SHOWTIME. Customize existing applications for CONFIRE SHOWTIME or develop a completely new app. The possibilities are practically endless: Integrate external Javascript libraries, use cloud-based Web services or even the pre-installed local data services of CONFIRE SHOWTIME.
Publish at the touch of a button
Once you have created a new SHOWTIME project or updated an existing one you will want to of course publish it instantly to all your player instances. Nothing could be easier: You can publish projects directly from the designer at the click of a mouse. You have the choice whether you want to publish to your local network, an FTP/WebDAV server or even popular cloud-based services such as Microsoft OneDrive or Google Drive.
