      Why Your Content Dimension Sizes Matter

      When creating content, it is essential to follow our recommended dimension sizes before uploading to your NowSignage account. Adhering to these guidelines ensures optimal performance of your hardware and helps prevent potential issues.

       

      If your content exceeds the recommended sizes, your hardware may struggle to output and scale the larger files effectively. This can lead to device malfunctions and may disrupt screen synchronisation, causing the screen to disconnect from the NowSignage App.

      Conversely, using content that is too small can also burden your hardware, as it will need to stretch the image or video (especially if you have enabled stretch videos in your screen settings) every time it is rendered on the display.

       

      TIP: For more detailed information, please refer to our comprehensive guide on Screen Status.
