Your local files displayed on any screen.
Pull images, videos, and documents from local network drives or FTP servers directly to your digital signage. Keep content on-premise while reaching every display.
On-premise content, cloud-powered screens
Some organizations need to keep media files on local infrastructure for compliance, security, or workflow reasons. The Local Folder and FTP integration bridges that gap by connecting your on-premise file servers to the Hangar.Media platform. Content stays on your network until it is securely transferred to your players.
Was Sie mit displayed on any screen. tun können
Drei Funktionen, die diese Integration für Ihr Digital Signage-Netzwerk unverzichtbar machen.
Automatic file detection
Point Hangar.Media at a local directory or FTP path and it continuously monitors for changes. New files are picked up and queued for display, removed files are pulled from playlists, and renamed files update in place.
Drop files on the network share and they show up on screens across the building within minutes.
Continuous monitoring of local and network directories
Automatic add, remove, and update detection
Adjustable polling intervals from 30 seconds to 24 hours
Encrypted file delivery
When connecting to remote FTP servers, Hangar.Media supports FTPS and SFTP for encrypted file transfer. SSH key authentication is available for environments that prohibit password-based access.
SFTP with key-based auth satisfies our IT security requirements without exception.
FTPS and SFTP encrypted transfer support
SSH key and certificate-based authentication
IP allowlisting for restricted server environments
Filter by type and folder
Control exactly what reaches your screens with file type filters and subfolder rules. Include only specific image or video formats, exclude temporary files, and map different subdirectories to different playlists.
We filter by subfolder so each department manages their own screen content independently.
Include or exclude files by extension
Subfolder-to-playlist mapping for departmental control
Ignore patterns for temp files, system files, and thumbnails

Entwickelt für jeden Branche.
Erfahren Sie, wie verschiedene Branchen diese Integration nutzen, um Ergebnisse zu erzielen.
Intranet-hosted content delivery
Companies with strict data policies keep approved signage content on internal file servers and use the folder watch feature to push it to lobby and meeting room screens.
HealthcareHIPAA-compliant media distribution
Hospitals store patient-safe educational content on secure internal drives and sync it to waiting room displays without any data leaving the local network until playback.
EducationCampus media server integration
Universities with on-premise media servers sync lecture hall schedules, campus maps, and event promotions to digital signage across buildings via internal FTP.
RetailWarehouse-to-store content pipeline
Retail chains with centralized creative teams save approved campaign assets to an FTP server that feeds store-level digital signage players overnight.
Häufige Fragen. Direkte Antworten.
Can I connect to a mapped network drive
Yes. If the Hangar.Media player or agent can access the network path, you can specify UNC paths or mapped drive letters as the content source. The service account running the agent must have read permissions on the share.
Is SFTP supported
Yes. Hangar.Media supports FTP, FTPS with TLS, and SFTP with both password and SSH key authentication. You can upload your private key directly in the integration settings.
How often does the folder get checked for changes
You can set the polling interval anywhere from every 30 seconds to once every 24 hours. For local folders, a file system watcher provides near-instant detection without polling.
What happens if a file is deleted from the source folder
When a file is removed from the monitored folder, Hangar.Media removes it from the associated playlist on the next sync cycle. You can optionally keep removed files in a grace period before they disappear from screens.
