Media-rich feeds for visually stunning displays.

This integration extracts it all for beautiful screen displays.
What you can do with Rich content feeds.
Three capabilities that make this integration essential for your digital signage network.
Extract images, videos, and metadata from MRSS feeds
Standard RSS feeds often contain only text. MRSS feeds include media objects with images, video thumbnails, video files, and descriptive metadata. The integration extracts all of these for display on your screens.
Every image, every video thumbnail, every piece of metadata, extracted and displayed.
Image extraction with resolution and format detection
Video thumbnail and video URL extraction
Media description, credit, and category metadata
Image-forward layouts for media-heavy content
MRSS content is best displayed in image-forward layouts. Choose from photo gallery, media card, and full-bleed image layouts that put the visual content front and center with headlines and descriptions as supporting text.
Media-first layouts where images lead and text supports.
Photo gallery layout with auto-sizing grid
Media cards with large images and headline overlays
Full-bleed image layout with text overlay
Inline video playback from MRSS video enclosures
When MRSS feeds include video file URLs, the integration can play them inline on your screens. Use this for news video clips, promotional videos, or any video content delivered via MRSS.
Video from MRSS feeds plays directly on your screens without any additional setup.

Common questions. Straight answers.
What is the difference between RSS and MRSS?
Standard RSS delivers text content with optional image links. MRSS (Media RSS) extends RSS with a dedicated media namespace that includes high-resolution images, video files, thumbnails, and rich metadata. MRSS feeds are ideal for visual content display.
Can MRSS play video on my screens?
Yes. When MRSS feeds include video enclosures with direct file URLs, the integration can play them inline on your screens. Supported formats include MP4, WebM, and HLS streams.
Does this work with standard RSS feeds too?
The MRSS widget is optimized for Media RSS feeds. For standard RSS feeds without media namespace elements, use the dedicated RSS Feed integration which handles text-focused feeds more efficiently.
How are images sized for display?
Images are rendered at their highest available resolution from the MRSS feed. The layout engine scales them to fit your screen resolution while maintaining aspect ratios and visual quality.
