Projecting Signage Content in Epson Creative Projection

Setting Up the Projector

Setup the projector, and then connect a USB memory device or an SD card to the projector. Also, connect the projector to the network.

Connecting to and Previewing on the Projector

When you connect your device to a projector, you can edit the content on your device while projecting a preview. You can confirm how your content is projected in real time.

Selecting a Template and Editing the Content

From the templates provided by Epson Creative Projection, select one that suits the content you want to create. You can customize the content by using text, stamps, effects, and so on to match the content you want to create. When you save your content to your device, you can re-edit it afterwards.

Saving Content to a Projector

When you have finished editing the content, save the content to the USB memory device or SD card connected to the projector as a “playlist”. You can play saved content from the projector even if you do not have your device with you.

Cannot play audio of the imported video
Epson Creative Projection does not allow you to include audio to your content. If you want to create contents that includes audio, use Epson Projector Content Manager.
Cannot preview content with a correct aspect ratio
Display the content list screen and then display the preview again. The preview image is adjusted to the correct aspect ratio according to the projector.
Cannot draw a line for pile up or twinkle effect
If a finger touches the device’s screen, you may not be able to draw a line. Make sure no finger other than drawing a line touches the screen.
