Hello everyone,
I am currently in the process of trying to set up a digital menu display and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to simplify some of the wiring/streaming needs.
Here is what I currently have setup:
7 - 55" Toshiba TV's arranged horizontally along one long wall
5 will be used to display the menu items and the 2 remaining outside left/right tv's will be used for a scrolling slideshow and video.
I do not have a computer system available to solely dedicate to these displays so my thoughts were to use a simple USB thumb drive plugged in the back of each tv. To avoid some of the hassle of having to get up and down ladders and re-positioning each tv after an update, I was considering running extension cables to the far right or far left to hold all 7 USB thumb drives in an easy access, numbered setup.
Does this seem logical or would there be a simpler way? Perhaps a USB hub of some sort that can allow for 1 or 2 thumb drives with the information to feed to all 5-7 tv's?
Thanks in advance for any help!
