Hi,
I did a tiny little bit of testing a couple of years ago, but now is the time to do some more serious testing as I have a customer that needs digital signage.
I am thinking about setting up the CMS on a shared hosting at Siteground. Has anyone done that before? The only thing of the thing Xibo needs that they did not support was ZeroMQ bindings for PHP. How critial is it? What does it do for Xibo?
I guess I will be doing the php7 patch I have seen described here unless there is a beta of a newer version I could download?
I am also talking to a manufacturer of Android boxes. Here are some of the specs of the cheapest model. Do you think it will be ok? I will borrow a box to test. The specs are in a mix of Spanish and Portuguese, I think. Sorry for that
