WCI Offers Different Ways to Display
Option 1: WCI will configure the TV’s built-in channel lineup to make HDMI (Casting input) the next location after the last channel in the property’s channel lineup. Ex: Configure the TV to go from Channel 40 to HDMI (casting) as the guest uses the up arrow on the remote.
Option 2: WCI will configure a Reach or Pro-Centric server to insert the HDMI input as the last channel in the lineup.
Option 3: Enable an HDMI input in a SMARTBOX scrolling guide.
