Once a Module is streaming, you can customize the streaming view by adjusting the scale and adding additional modules or cameras to the streaming session.

In this example, we have three modules that just show a custom background with no text message. The very wide image is chopped into three equal parts which align seamlessly.

Custom Modules

 

Modules are rendered using json. If you create a Clock Module, you can see a link to a json template. View the contents of that URL for a simple example of how content is rendered. Change the URL for your custom Clock Module to get started.
