How to Convert Smart TV into a Noticeboard

Transforming your smart TV into a digital noticeboard is simple and effective with PosterBooking. Whether you’re managing updates in schools, offices, or public spaces, PosterBooking allows you to display dynamic content seamlessly.

Here’s how to set it up, step by step.

Step 1: Set Up Your Smart TV

  1. Ensure your smart TV is connected to the internet.
  2. If your TV isn’t a smart screen, you can use an Amazon Fire Stick or the Amazon Signage Stick. The Amazon Signage Stick comes with a free year of PosterBooking Business Pro, making it an ideal option.
  3. Download the PosterBooking app from your device’s app store.

Step 2: Connect Your Screen to PosterBooking

  1. Open the PosterBooking app and navigate to the Screens section.
  2. Select Add Screen and tap Add Screen again.

Step 3: Upload Your Noticeboard Content

  1. Go to the Content section in the PosterBooking app and choose Images/Videos.
  2. Click Upload to add the content you want to display on the noticeboard.
    • Examples include announcements, schedules, event flyers, or reminders.
  3. Ensure all images are in the correct resolution for optimal display. For Full HD screens, use 1920×1080 pixels.

Step 4: Create a Playlist for Your Noticeboard

  1. Navigate to the Playlists section and select Create Playlist.
  2. Name the playlist (e.g., “Noticeboard”).
  3. Click Add Content and select the uploaded images or videos you want to include.
  4. If you have multiple notices, add them all to create a rotating slideshow.
  5. Adjust the slide duration to control how long each notice is displayed.

Step 5: Assign the Playlist to Your Screen

  1. Return to the Screens section and locate your connected screen.
