SOE Image
Section titled “SOE Image”It is possible to have the organizations Standard Operating Environment (SOE) imaging team create an image for a playback computer such as a NUC or compute stick https://www.aopen.com/NZ_en/products/embedded_pc/digital-signage-media-players https://store.mele.cn/pages/pc-stick-series
The requirements are:
- Launch chrome or edge in kiosk mode https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-configure-kiosk-mode
- Launch a generic bootstrap page we provide: https://<placeos.domain.com>/signage/#/bootstrap
- Ensure media playback is automatic:
msedge --kiosk https://your-url --kiosk-type=fullscreen \ --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required
chrome --kiosk https://your-url \ --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required \ --disable-features=MediaSessionService
The bootstrap page allows you to rollout the hardware and select the display it represents after it has been installed. Simplifying management of the computer images and rollout.
