The friendlywayContent Management System (CMS) integrated into the friendlyway composer network services provides a quick and easy way to distribute multimedia content from a redaction work place to public multimedia terminals and displays.
Now it is as easy as ABC:
A: A content administrator creates some content (e.g. a multimedia presentation) either via the friendlyway composer suite or any other software.
B: The presentation is saved onto the server, i.e. content database (read Content Packages for detailed instructions).
C: The content is assigned to selected terminals, where it will be played back (read Content Groups for detailed instructions).
How does it work?
The whole friendlyway CMS functionality is split between the composer network services Web-interface (server side) and the client service configuration software installed on each terminal station (client side). On the client side all you need is to configure the parameters for establishing connection with the server and specify the contents folders. This is done on each terminal on the Content Management tab of the client service configuration software.
The main features of the friendlyway CMS are:
1. Organizing terminals to logical groups and the possibility to assign content to a group.
2. Wizard-enabled creation of a secure browser package.
3. Wizard-enabled creation of a composer suite package.
4. Managing the installation and playback of multimedia content on the terminals.
5. Possibility to edit any existing content.
6 Controlling the content version.
