Hi,
is it possible to automaticly reload a file in CMS, which is already placed in a layout or in the library?
The real question is: We need to display a excel sheet that is placed on the network and can be modified by every people. The changes made to the sheet, should be visible on xibo-client within a few minutes.
Any sugestions?
Best regards
Robin
Short version - Perhaps use embedded html module with fully qualified path to that file in an iframe?
Longer version - You could publish it as a wepbage, make sure the file will be present on the players PC (or accessible via LAN). Then you could use embedded html module in Xibo with an iframe and in src give the fully qualified path to your file.
Then when updating the file, make sure the name and path stays the same so Xibo will be able to find the updated version without you changing anything on your layout.
simple iframe like:
<iframe width="1920" height="1080" src="file://c:/path/to/media/name.extension" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen><iframe>
