Apologies for the thread necromancy, but after several years it now appears that Digital Signage was someone else's idea, not mine, and therefore I've got the go ahead on this. I would like to do this with Frog and with as little overheads as possible and avoiding digital signage software if possible.
I'm doing ok. I'm using a Windows mini PC that I am going to stick behind a TV to hide it. It boots when powered up at the wall, logs in automatically, and launches Edge in full screen on the digital signage Frog site I've setup.
I have two queries. Firstly, is it possible to load the site without the blue 'Cookie Notification' showing? And secondly, is there a better way than using the 'Kiosk' user profile in Windows to get the page to refresh periodically?
The Cookie Notification is a pain as the only way I have managed to get the screen to refresh is using the 'Kiosk' profile and this displays a message saying '30 seconds until your browser session refreshes'. When the page refreshes, the cookie notification appears again and takes a good chunk of the screen. I obviously can't be there to click the 'Ok' button whenever I want the screen to refresh.
As an aside, I've dabbled with using the shell: startup command and editng the properties in the Edge shortcut to use the 'Kiosk' command to auto launch the digital signage site, and this works, but I can't then use browser add ins, as my original plan was to use a browser add in to automatically refresh the page.
I don't code, so I don't know how else to approach this, hopefully one of the sages here can help.
