			<description><![CDATA[Hi Jessica,
2 tickers on a sign is almost certainly a bad idea. One ticker alone can dramatically reduce comprehension rates for the rest of your content. I'd guess that two tickers will simply be ignored. If you **must** have two, for some reason, put them as far apart from each other as possible, so that people can focus on one of them (since there's no way they'll be able to read both at once anyway).
But seriously, it's probably the wrong way to solve whatever problem you're having.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Do you have any suggestions on where to place 2 RSS tickers on signs? Should they be on top of each other or in separate areas of the sign?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Mutahi,
As Mr Murstad above noted, there are plenty of software options -- [[http://www.wirespring.com|FireCast]] included, that will drive multiple monitors from a single player. A quick Google search for "digital signage software" will yield a pretty big list to choose from.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Mutahi - Not sure if I'm allowed to mention software solutions here, but talk to the guys at Nexus Digital Signs (www.nexusdigitalsigns.com) they have solved it. Ask for Brandon.
Mike - Again, not sure if I'm allowed to mention software, but you too should talk to the guys at Nexus. Ask for Darren ;)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[mutahi- you want what they call a video or audio and video matrix switcher. Kramer and Extron make some good ones. You can find them on Ebay as well far cheaper!
We are trying to figure how to move grahics, video, or text across multiple screens left to right. anyone have any ideas? Thanks!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Nate: thanks for the kind words. Always nice to hear that people find our stuff useful!
Francois: I love the idea of a "digital signage best of", though getting permission to use content can be very tough sometimes. Still, I think it would be extremely useful to others to show some examples of all these best practices in use, so I'm going to have to put that on my to-do list :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We want a digital display system that allows multiple screens to display individual or selective content without installing many local players at one location - meaning, we need a software that will give us the ability to beam different content to each individual screen. Is it possible, or what software do we need? Rgds, Mutahi]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Finally, the tip of the iceberg is showing ;). Motion is key and should not be approached on its own but as whole, in a script. Moving pictures are...movies. Now if you can get creative to think in terms of colour, shapes and motion, you've got yourself a scriptwriter. Once again, thanks for this series of articles Bill, I just wish that in the next ones, you provide moving examples or a digital signage best of! Cheers.]]></description>
