For those using RTS Ticketing Software, I read some years ago on their message boards about using LED signage with RTS. I seem to remember their was a particular sign that was recommended that could be purchased at Sam's Club. I've scanned through their boards, but I can't seem to find that thread. We are currently looking at upgrading to such signage at our box office and/or auditoriums to replace the BASS one liners we currently use. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Do you mean for the actual terminal display or for the advertising screen option?

We have a flatscreen TV hooked up for the advertising screen.

(as for terminal display, RTS is running on an all in one computer-monitor-printer-card_scanner device)

How about LED displays above each auditorium. Is there a particular display that folks like that can take a feed from RTS to automatically put the title up?

Yep that's what we're looking for in addition to displaying showtimes, pricing, and policies at the box office.

We utilize it here. They are by Adaptive Micro Systems. It requires in our instance a serial network through a PCI Card. The sign controller software reads a file from our RTS system and filters and imports the data. We have auditorium signage and a Box Marquee board.

Craig,

Can you post pics of your signage?
