Common questions. Straight answers.
Can I play unlisted YouTube videos on my signage?
Yes. Hangar.Media supports both public and unlisted YouTube video URLs. Simply paste the unlisted video link into the content library and it will play on your screens.
Will YouTube ads appear on my digital signage?
YouTube videos played through the Hangar.Media player use embedded playback. Ad behaviour depends on the video owner settings and YouTube policies. For ad-free playback, consider using YouTube Premium or uploading content directly.
What happens if my internet connection drops during playback?
Hangar.Media automatically switches to cached fallback content when connectivity is lost. Once the connection is restored, YouTube playback resumes from where it left off.
Can I mix YouTube videos with other content types?
Absolutely. You can add YouTube videos to any playlist alongside images, web pages, social feeds, and other widgets. Use multi-zone layouts to display YouTube in one zone while showing different content in others.
