Fugo is now supported on LG WebOS Signage-powered displays!

Note that Fugo is already supported on LG WebOS TV-powered displays, and can be configured to run on those screen from the 'Play via URL' setting.

This latest update builds on our support for LG displays by making Fugo also available on displays running the LG WebOS Signage operating system.

Confused? Let us explain 👇

Understanding the difference between LG WebOS Signage & LG WebOS TV

LG WebOS Signage

LG WebOS Signage is the operating system on LG's commercial display line. It's built specifically for professional digital signage & includes hardware advantages over their consumer TVs like higher brightness, longer operating hours and higher durability.

We support:

• webOS Signage 4.0
• webOS Signage 4.1
• webOS Signage 6.0 (recommended)

LG WebOS TV

LG WebOS TV is the operating system on LG's consumer smart TV lines. It's built for home entertainment purposes and therefore lacks the feature set of a professional display, and doesn't support all of the functionality of the Fugo player application.

To learn more the differences between the two & how to find out what kind of screen you have, check out this guide.

To learn more about our minimum requirements & recommended LG displays, check out this guide.

And coming soon...

A dedicated Fugo player app for WebOS TV. This app will make it easier to install and run Fugo on your consumer grade LG smart TVs.

Reach out to support@fugo.ai if you have any questions about your LG display or want some guidance choosing displays for your upcoming project.

Happy publishing! 📺

Then meet the AirServer.

This handy little device helps you mirror your desktop to screens in meeting rooms and other common areas where you need to easily launch into presentation mode.

It's a universal screen mirroring receiver, with built in support for AirPlay, Google Cast, and Miracast. So you can mirror from your Mac or PC, iPhone, iPad, Android, Nexus or Chromebook.

And when the screen's not being used for presentations? That's where Fugo comes in.

You can use your AirServer device as a Fugo Player and easily switch between digital signage and screen sharing. All you have to do is set Fugo as your preferred content URL (https://player.fugo.ai) and that's it!

Whenever you're not mirroring to your display, the Airserver will automatically switch back to your 'normal programming' content as set in Fugo.

Native casting support

Don't forget we also have native support for screen casting built right into Fugo! See how 👇

Need a more secure Channel link?

You can now make your Channel link password-protected!

Find the Access settings next to the share button for your Channel link.

What's a 'Channel'?

Channels are like virtual TV screens - they allow you to share your Fugo content as a URL or embed it inside a website or intranet. They're super helpful for sharing content with your hybrid or WFH employees, students & their parents, or visitors & members of your church or club.

It's now super easy to select & move multiple media files between folders in your media library!

2. Press 'shift' and click on items to enable selection:

3. Drag and drop all selected items into a folder at once:

4. Use Ctrl-A or Cmd-A to select all visible items

We’re making a bid to help you connect your screens to even more of your favorite tools that Fugo doesn’t natively integrate with (yet!). Today, we're thrilled to introduce our new Zapier integration, giving you the flexibility to publish content on screens with less clicks. Use it to automate content publishing and updating flows on TV screens connected to Fugo:

• Push media to TV screens from the Slack & Discord channels your colleagues & customers use to chat
• Trigger content on screens to celebrate achievements & milestones hit inside tools like Salesforce, Hubspot & Monday.com
• Alert support or network monitoring teams to incoming support requests with auto-triggered alert messages on TV screens

These are just a few of the ways you can use this Zapier integration to make your screens more impactful for the teams that watch them.

We encourage you to head over to Zapier and start cooking up your own creations 🔥 You can start with one of our Zap templates or create an automation between Fugo and your favorite work tool.
