Community Channel Signees Walkthrough
In this article, we’ll walk you through the entire process of using the EmpireTV Community Channel—from logging in for the first time to creating content, building playlists, and making them live on every screen in your facility. This step-by-step guide is designed to help you easily manage and display customized content throughout your building.
The process is divided into three simple steps:
A. Create Content – Design your slides using preloaded templates or custom elements.
B . Add to Playlist – Organize your content into a playlist and set display durations.
C. Assign to Screen – Publish the playlist to a live screen so it appears throughout your facility.
