  • Posters and trailers have downloaded and are correct.
  • Ratings, orientation and session text are readable.
  • At least one complete playback cycle has been observed.
  • Advertising works and test intervals have been restored.
  • URL pages load, fit and animate while displayed.
  • Every follower has its intended local layout and advertising settings.
  • Clock synchronization is correct where matching screens are required.
  • A real boot opens Cinema Sign.
  • Display sleep/wake works with the actual television.
  • Enough free storage remains for normal operation.
  • App log persistence is normally Off; installer diagnostic settings are understood.
  • Any system disk-logging change has been checked after a reboot.

After a programme or campaign change

Check the import or saved record, then Playback/Up Next, then the physical television. If you used a short test interval, return it to the normal value. Give incoming staff the title, time and purpose of any deliberate temporary setting.

Do not write passwords or API keys on a public screen record. Keep them in the cinema's normal secure account records.
