Use this when several monitors are physically connected to one host (HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, VGA — the cable type doesn't matter). Pick whichever method suits you; all three register normal screens you then control from the dashboard.
Detects the attached monitors and opens a fullscreen player on each. Chrome or Edge only.
After a window opens on a screen, click it once to go fullscreen and enable sound (browsers require one tap per window). It stays registered afterward.
A native app that auto-detects every monitor, opens a locked fullscreen player on each, keeps the screen awake, and plays audio without a tap. Best for permanent installs.
cd marquee/electron
npm install
npm start
Point it at a remote server with MARQUEE_SERVER=http://HOST:3700 npm start.
See marquee/electron/README.md. Package it into a double-click installer with
npm run dist.
Works in any browser, no permissions. Open this on the display, drag it onto that monitor, and press F11 for fullscreen:
…/player/
Each device that opens this registers itself as its own screen automatically.
Only if you're opening several player windows in the same browser do you need to
tell them apart — add a distinct id, e.g. /player/?screen=lobby-1, since windows in one
browser otherwise share a single identity. Add &kiosk=1 to hide the browser chrome.
