I have a setup of Xibo which includes an Ubuntu server and three Android clients. At some point i set up everything and there seem that everything was working fine. All the three clients displayed the same content at the same time. But the main purpose of this installation was that each display could display different content. But, the main problem here is that, in the admin panel of Xibo, i see only one display, not three, even that I have activated their license and connected to the CMS all the three of them.
At the moment I am writing these, I cannot even display the same content at the same time at all the displays.
I would like to mention(and here is the crazy part) that during the set up of this system, the only display that showed on the admin panel, under the “Display” tab, have changed it’s IP(have taken the IP of two of the android clients).
I have read different threads that suggest that something about time of the clients o their names but nothing seem to help me.
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
You will want to open Xibo for Android settings and change hardware key there - it should be unique for each display.
Once each display will have unique key, then there should be 3 display records on CMS displays page - so you will be able to set/schedule different layouts to different displays.
But now it seems that i have another problem. In my enviroment, i have 3 displays and a layout per each. I have edited the timeline of each layout. When i start the the xibo client everything plays fine, for about 10-15 minutes, then it stops and shows me the splash screen(xibo and spring signature logos on the right low corner). when i go te the logs, i get the following error:
