Elecard ViCont 1.3 Is Out — More Content, More Flexibility, More Control
We are excited to announce the release of Elecard ViCont 1.3 — a new version that makes content management easier and digital screens more effective. The update covers the server, Android and Linux players, and also unlocks new capabilities for ViCont InfoBoards, our solution for navigation displays.
Here’s what you get with the release.
Upload Presentations and Web Pages Directly into the System
Display slides, websites, online dashboards, and web services without using third-party tools. ViCont is no longer just a video platform — it becomes a universal tool for managing digital content.
Create Channels and Manage Playback Lists
Create channels and organize them into convenient lists. This allows you to build flexible playback scenarios for any task — from corporate TV to large digital signage networks.
Give Viewers the Freedom to Choose Channels
You can now allow users to switch channels themselves and access exactly the content they need.
Manage Content Directly in the Schedule
Upload videos, images, presentations, and web pages right inside the scheduling editor. This saves time and speeds up the launch of new playback scenarios.
Use Advanced Playlists with Flexible Time Control
Combine videos, images, and simple playlists within a single schedule. For example: loop several videos at the top of the hour, then play individual items on a timer. This gives you full freedom in program scheduling.
Show Different Content Simultaneously in Multiple Screen Zones
ViCont InfoBoards, the version designed for navigation panels, now supports picture-in-picture technology, allowing different content to be displayed at the same time in multiple screen areas. This is especially useful for double-sided displays, where each side can show its own independent content.
Deploy Ready-to-Use Android Set-Top Boxes with Preinstalled Player
Launch projects faster with no complex setup. We handle all the technical preparation and deliver Android set-top boxes with custom firmware, fully ready for remote updates.
Display Live Data with No Delays
The ViCont server supports receiving any type of auxiliary data: estimated time of arrival, electronic queue systems, countdown timers, and more. Once a command is received from an external source, the ViCont server automatically updates the data on the screen.
Additional Features
With ViCont Server 1.3, you can also:
- Store screenshot history to monitor content playback
- Quickly find the required players using advanced filtering
- View extended player parameters, including IP addresses
- Protect content with Uplynk DRM
Elecard ViCont 1.3 provides more content, more scenarios, and full control over your digital screens.
If you’re already using ViCont, now is the perfect time to upgrade. If you’re just exploring the platform, we’ll be happy to demonstrate its capabilities in action.
