Welcome Screens temporarily override the normal slideshow playback to display personalized guest messaging before regular TV content begins.
This allows properties to create a more personal arrival experience without permanently modifying the main slideshow.
Basic Welcome Screen Workflow #
- Configure a Welcome Screen on a player
- Enter guest information
- Set active dates and duration
- Save the changes
- The player automatically displays the Welcome Screen
The process is handled automatically by the player once the configuration is active.
Temporary Override Behavior #
While active, the Welcome Screen temporarily appears before the standard slideshow playback.
This allows:
- Personalized guest greetings
- VIP messaging
- Special event welcomes
- Temporary room-specific content
The underlying slideshow itself remains unchanged.
Automatic Return to Normal Playback #
Once the configured duration or expiration time has passed:
- The Welcome Screen automatically disappears
- The player resumes normal slideshow playback
- No manual reset is normally required
This ensures the system returns to standard content automatically after the guest-specific message is no longer needed.
Welcome Screens are designed to be temporary and automated, making them practical for hospitality staff without requiring constant manual management.
