We're very excited to announce that TrayStatus 4.0 Beta 1 is now available for download! This beta fixes a bunch of issues and adds a couple of new features.
We encourage everyone to update to this new version today to take advantage of these improvements. If you've already purchased TrayStat, it's a lifetime license, so you can upgrade to this version at no cost! If you would like to see a complete list of all the changes, please visit the TrayStatus Beta Change Log.
We're excited to announce that we've added a new "live preview" feature for previewing device configurations. Using this, you can see exactly how every screen and frame will look on the device itself.
To view the live preview for a device or template, navigate to the device or template's configuration page, then click the "Live Preview" link at the top of the page. You'll be prompted to confirm the action.
You can also view the live preview for a device by clicking the magnifying glass next to the device on the Dashboard.
Here's a live preview from one of our sample devices:

We're excited to announce that we've added a new "recycle bin" feature for handling deleted devices. Now, when you delete a device, it will move to the built-in "Deleted Devices" group so that you can easily restore it in the future if needed. Devices in the "Deleted Devices" group do not count towards your active devices with regards to billing.
To delete a device, navigate to the device's configuration page, then click the "Delete Device" link at the top of the page. You'll be prompted to confirm the action.
If you navigate to the Devices page, you'll see a new built-in group called "Deleted Devices." The device you just deleted should show up there. Note that the main Dashboard does not show the "Deleted Devices" group.
To restore the device, you can either drag the device from the "Deleted Devices" group and drop it on another group, or you can click "Undelete Device" on the device's configuration page.
To permanently delete the device, click the "Permanently Delete this Device" link on the device's configuration page.
We're very excited to announce a feature upgrade for the Audio Player app! You can now configure a playlist of audio files to rotate through.
To get started with the Audio Player app, first upload some audio files on the Content page.
Next, add the Audio Player app to one of your devices.
In the Audio Player configuration dialog, click "Add Audio File," then choose the audio files you'd like to add to the playlist. If you need to change the order of the audio files, you can select one or more in the list and then click "Move Up" or "Move Down" to adjust their positions.
When you're finished configuring the list of audio files, click the green "Save" button, and you're all set! If the changes don't show up on your device immediately, click the "Reload Content Frames" link at the top of the device page to force a refresh.
We're very excited to announce a feature upgrade for the Custom URL app! You can now configure a list of websites to rotate through on a set interval. Using this you can now rotate through websites in a single large frame, rather than trying to fit a bunch of smaller Custom URL frames on one display.
To configure the URL slideshow, first, add a Custom URL app to your CloudShow device.
In the Custom URL configuration dialog, click "Add Website URL," paste in the URL, then click the green "Add Website URL" button. Repeat this process for any other websites you'd like to add to the list.
To configure how long you want each website to be shown, specify the interval in minutes. The default is 15 minutes, but you can set it as low as 1 minute.
When you're finished configuring the list of websites and the interval, click the green "Save" button, and you're all set! If the changes don't show up on your device immediately, click the "Reload Content Frames" link at the top of the device page to force a refresh.
