What the TDM licence covers
TDM-DS1Y and TDM-DS3Y are software licences for TDM digital signage, the web-based content and scheduling platform for BRAVIA professional displays. The TDM-DS1Y is a one-year operating licence and the TDM-DS3Y runs for three years. Each licence is valid for one BRAVIA professional display. Within that display there is no limit on the number of users who can access the application and author content, which suits teams where several staff update the same screen.
Showing content on more screens needs one licence per screen. The licence does not include a display, so confirm you have a compatible BRAVIA panel or order one with the licence.
Building screen content without design skills
The editor runs in a web browser and produces HTML5 content, so staff can assemble a screen from graphics, text, video and sound without learning design software. Standard templates cover education, healthcare, retail and other sectors, giving a starting layout rather than a blank page. Because content is hosted in the cloud, a colleague on a PC, a designer on a Mac or a manager on a tablet can work on the same material.
Static and scrolling text, date and time, weather reports and ticker tape are all part of the toolset. PowerPoint files can be imported, which saves time when a department already has slides prepared.
Live feeds, video and web content
Signage can carry YouTube and Vimeo video, streaming audio, websites and RSS or XML feeds, so headlines and data stay current without manual edits. RTSP streams from connected cameras can also be shown. Supported still images are BMP, JPG, GIF and PNG, video formats include AVI, MPG, WMV and H.264, and sound files can be WAV or MP3. Flash and Silverlight are not listed as supported, so check any legacy files before you build a playlist.
Scheduling, power saving and monitoring
Schedules decide which content plays on which screen and at what time. Automatic switch-off at night cuts run time when screens are idle, and a playlist can be launched at a set time. The monitoring tool shows which connected BRAVIA displays are in use and flags operational issues, with alerts sent by mail or SMS.
Where it fits in Qatar
- Schools in Al Wakrah or Al Rayyan: a private school refitting classrooms can post timetables and announcements room by room, changing content between morning and afternoon sessions.
- Clinics in Msheireb: a clinic waiting area can run health information and switch the screens off after closing time.
- Hotel lobbies in West Bay: a lobby can rotate weather, event listings and a news RSS feed while the screen is in use.
What to plan before you order
Start with an inventory of your BRAVIA displays and their model numbers. The manufacturer states TDM is compatible with all BRAVIA professional display models, and lists examples such as FW-55X8570C, FW-65BZ35F and FWL-75W855C. Count the screens that will show TDM content, because each one needs its own licence. Decide whether a one-year or three-year term suits your budget cycle, then plan mounting positions. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar helps confirm locations for large panels in lobbies and boardrooms before installation, and professional installation can be arranged.
Send your screen count, BRAVIA model numbers and preferred licence term to SmartRooms Qatar and request a quote. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and purchase orders are accepted for multi-screen rollouts.
