BrightSign Debuts Version 2.5 of DS Software

brightsign-software-0312BrightSign will debut the new live data version of BrightAuthor version 2.5, which will be available later this month. Included free of charge with BrightSign’s broad line of high-definition, solid-state digital signage controllers, the PC-based software is designed for creating, updating, managing and monitoring digital signage displays.

With this latest version of BrightAuthor, BrightSign added the ability to connect to a wide range of public and private live data sources — RSS feeds, Twitter, texts, etc. The new capabilities will enable users to display real-time data from RSS feeds and databases as “Live Texts,” which are text fields that can be place on top of video and image content. New layout switching capabilities have also been added to support layout changes within a presentation. For example, BrightAuthor users can Tweet a welcome message for a visitor and it will promptly appear as integrated content on a BrightSign display via the media player.
