Overview

Sony iRevo IDS/5YR is a cloud-hosted digital signage software package for BRAVIA Professional Displays, covering five years of operation under a single license. It works with the Android system on compatible BRAVIA screens, so no additional hardware is listed. Content can be designed and published from any web browser, combining video, PDFs, web pages, RSS feeds and live TV. It suits Qatari schools, universities and corporate offices that want one system for screen content and emergency announcements.

What Sony iRevo IDS/5YR delivers

Sony iRevo IDS/5YR is a digital signage software license for BRAVIA Professional Displays. It is hosted in the cloud, so designing, scheduling and publishing signage happens in a web browser rather than on a local media player. The package includes a 5-year operating license, and the manufacturer data lists 25 GB of content management system storage and 25 GB of download or streaming bandwidth.

The software works with the Android operating system on compatible BRAVIA screens, which means the display itself becomes the playback device. The source data specifies no additional hardware, so there is no separate media box to buy, mount or power.

Design, content and scheduling

Templates, layout controls and touch support let staff build polished screens without specialist coding skills. Content can include video, animated photos, music, PDF files, Microsoft Office or Google documents, web pages, RSS feeds, QR codes and widgets. Material can be streamed live or played from USB or LAN storage.

Playlists and scheduling to change content at set times
Project sharing for teams that build signage together
Targeted publishing to individual displays or to groups
Monitoring and alerts, with whitelisting of playout devices and email notices for logs and errors

Where it fits in Qatar

A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a new classroom block could use one iRevo account to rotate timetable changes, exam notices and event posters across corridor screens, with each floor receiving its own group. The front office updates content from a browser while teachers focus on lessons.

A corporate office in Lusail or West Bay can run a lobby display showing meeting schedules, visitor information and company news, while the facilities team sends urgent notices from a phone. The iRevo iDS Cast app for Android smartphones plays photos, videos, music, text and PDF files on a BRAVIA display and broadcasts announcements and emergency messages, which helps reception and security staff reach people quickly.

What to plan before you order

Confirm that each BRAVIA Professional Display runs the Android system that iRevo supports.
Count the displays and decide which will be managed individually and which as groups.
Match your content types, such as video, PDFs, web pages and live TV, to the supported sources.
Check network access for cloud hosting and any LAN content sources with your IT team.
Confirm the installation environment if screens sit near windows or outdoors.

The source data gives no operating temperature range for this software, so ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm the environment for any location outside an air-conditioned interior. SmartRooms Qatar can quote the software alongside compatible BRAVIA displays, deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar and arrange professional installation, and a free site survey is available before wall-mounting larger panels. Request a quote and we will usually respond within one working day with a quotation.

Questions about IDS/5YR

What is Sony iRevo IDS/5YR and who is it for?

Sony iRevo IDS/5YR is cloud-hosted digital signage software for BRAVIA Professional Displays, supplied with a 5-year operating license. It suits schools, colleges and corporate offices that want to design and publish screen content from a web browser instead of a separate media player. Communications teams, facilities managers and school administrators who look after several screens are the typical users.

Does iRevo need any extra hardware?

The source data specifies no additional hardware. iRevo works with the Android operating system on compatible BRAVIA Professional Displays, so the screen plays the content itself. Users do not need special coding skills to build signage. Before ordering, confirm that each display model runs the Android system iRevo supports, and send the list to the SmartRooms Qatar team for checking.

Which BRAVIA displays can run iRevo?

iRevo is designed for BRAVIA Professional Displays that use the Android operating system. Send the exact model numbers of the screens you already own or plan to buy, and the SmartRooms Qatar team will check them before preparing your quotation. Do not assume that a display is compatible just because it belongs to the same product family, so check each model.

How long does the license last, and what happens after five years?

The model includes a 5-year operating license. The source data does not state renewal terms, so ask SmartRooms Qatar to confirm the position in writing with your quotation before you budget beyond the five-year period. For a school or government body planning a long signage programme, agreeing this early avoids surprises when renewal comes up.

How much content can the system store and stream?

The source data lists 25 GB of storage in the content management system and 25 GB of download or streaming bandwidth. Short looping videos and image slides use far less space than long high-definition files. Compress large videos before uploading, and check the storage figure against your full content library, not only the first campaign, so seasonal content does not fill the system.

Can a private school in Al Wakrah use iRevo for corridor and classroom announcements?

Yes, provided the screens are compatible BRAVIA Professional Displays. A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a new classroom block could publish timetable changes, exam notices and event posters to one group of corridor screens and update them from the front office. Separate groups can be set up for each floor, so each area receives only the content meant for it.

Can staff in a Lusail office send emergency messages from a phone?

Yes. The iRevo iDS Cast app for Android smartphones sends announcements and emergency messages to networked BRAVIA displays. A facilities manager in a Lusail office tower could push a building notice to lobby and floor screens while away from the desk. Before going live, decide which staff hold app access and who is authorised to send emergency messages.

Can iRevo show live TV, RSS feeds or network camera feeds?

The source data lists live TV, network cameras, LAN services, RSS feeds and web pages as supported sources. A hotel lobby in West Bay could show a live news channel alongside flight information from a web page, or a university reception could display a camera view of an entrance. Whether each source is available depends on your network arrangements and the rights of the content owner, so check these with your IT team first.

Can a team manage the displays while working abroad?

Yes. iRevo is accessed through a web browser, so authorised staff can publish content and monitor displays from any location with internet access. A Doha company whose team works in another time zone could update screens overnight Qatar time without travelling to the site. The source data lists admin, author and manage logins per device, so confirm the login count with SmartRooms Qatar when you request a quote.

How do I know if a display has stopped working?

iRevo lets you monitor individual displays or groups, and it can send device logs and error alerts by email. A corporate office with screens across several floors can route those alerts to a shared IT mailbox, so a fault is reported when it happens rather than when a visitor notices a blank screen. Choose the alert recipients during setup so the right person receives each message.

Can a government entity buy iRevo through a purchase order?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs), supports government tenders including Monaqasat, and accepts payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Send the display models and the number of screens to be managed, and the team will usually issue a quotation within one working day. Products are covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

Can I use iRevo for screens near windows or outdoors in Qatar?

The source data gives no operating temperature range for iRevo, which is software, so the display installation environment decides where screens can go. Summer temperatures above 45°C and dust storms make window-facing and outdoor locations a concern. Ask SmartRooms Qatar to confirm the environment for each site, and book a free site survey before fixing larger screens to walls in lobbies or entrances.
