Nearly all features are supported, including offline playback and auto update of the OptiSigns app. Getting your SSSP with OptiSigns is an easy process!
This article is for installing OptiSigns on Samsung SSP devices only! |

The installation process to get OptiSigns on your SSSP is easy! There are two different scenarios for you:

- Install on a brand new SSSP display through out of box experience setup: You have a brand new SSSP display or you just performed a factory reset. You can connect to OptiSigns through the out of box experience/initial set-up process.

Preloading of the next video is not allowed. The transition from video to video is not as smooth as other players that allow video preloading.
