Learn how to add YouTube videos, playlists, or live streams to your digital signage using Rise Vision. This guide helps you show dynamic content and keep your displays engaging.

Instructions

  1. Add the YouTube Full Screen Template or add a YouTube component to a template in your Rise Vision account.
  2. In the left-hand menu, click on YouTube.
  3. Paste the URL of the YouTube video, playlist, or live stream into the provided field.
  4. Use the volume slider to set the desired audio level.
  5. Click Publish in the top-right corner.
  6. Add the published presentation to your Schedule to display it.

If you are the owner of the video, here is how you can optionally force captions to be shown on the video:

  1. Log in to the YouTube channel that owns the video.
  2. Click your user icon in the top right corner and select YouTube Studio.
  3. From the left-hand menu, click Content and select the video you want to update by clicking on its name.
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the video details page and click Show more.

Behavior Notes

  • The video may not auto-play in the preview, depending on your browser settings. It will auto-play on the actual display.
  • Some videos or streams may not be embeddable due to YouTube content owner restrictions.
  • Content owners can change settings at any time, which may affect playback.
  • YouTube advertisements may appear during playback.
  • If captions are available, adding yt:cc=on turns captions on by default for all viewers, even when the video is embedded in Rise Vision or other platforms
