I have a windows 10 PC, 2 Large screen TV for monitors and a Dual monitor Card. I'm looking Digital signage solution that will allow me to show different content (i.e.
PowerPoint Slides) on the 2 screens at the same time. The screens will be facing different directions. I would like to be able:.

Built using an open source SDK, it supports the most widely used file formats. The SignagePlayer can run pretty much anywhere, on Windows, Linux, Mac, iOS,.
remotely copy the slide show files to a share on the PC. Have the software configured so that File1 plays on screen1 and Slide2 plays on screen2. be able to launch the application remotely without having to log into the PC An Opensource solution would be nice but what options do I have? Not exactly to your terms but My signage in the past was Linux based, Usb booted (client requirement) they wanted any system they plugged the stick into to boot, bring up a browser window and have it open one of there stats pages. Now as I said not directly related but you could do the same, Have it scripted to boot, and open file1 full screen on screen1, file2 on screen2, then when needed overwrite the files and either issue a reboot OR call the script that runs on boot. EX:!/bin/bash wmctrl -s 0 #Switches to workspace 0 workspaces are numbered from 0 this would be screen 1 I dont use powerpoint often but one of the libreoffice suit #supports it lowriter ' wmctrl -s 1 #Switches to workspace 0 workspaces are numbered from 0 this would be screen 2 lowriter ' Something along those lines, call it on boot or whenever you change the files, you can either change the files over ssh or add a samba service so it will act like a typical windows network share.
