Outdoor screens

[enjay]

Has anyone got any experience of outdoor screens? Nothing huge, maybe 45-55" kind of size and a way of getting a presentation onto them. We're currently using regular TV screens, an Amazon Firestick and ScreenCloud around the site, but need to have some of these up outside. Data cabling to the locations is an option.

See this thread https://www.edugeek.net/forums/av-multimedia-related/232765-outdoor-screen-help.html it's a 65" but I wouldn't waste your money.

We purchased a couple of Proofvision 43" outdoor TVs about 5 years ago - they were expensive but still working well. Have them running a firestick with Xibo

That looks like exactly what I'm after, especially as it can take a Firestick so we don't need to do anything differently for the external displays. Pricey at £1500 for 32" and £2500 for 43" but fully weather-proofing them is probably tricky.

We paid around the £8K mark but the office admin staff ordered it.

I was going to suggest just buying an enclosure and putting a screen in it, but that doesn't look like it works out any cheaper than those TVs. Even the Samsung weather resistant* screens are £4.5k.

We need weatherproof not "weather resistant" as we'll be mounting them permanently on external walls.
