NEW Version 4
Updated: 08.01.2020
Introduction
Monitors AnyWhere is Windows-based software that allows you to Connect and Control multiple screens from a single PC for Digital Signage purposes.
Our software reduces the initial cost by replacing the traditional way of installing a PC or media player per TV screen, and also reduces maintenance cost as it is so easy to use and maintain.

- Keeping cookies that stores username and password credentials for secured URLs
The new version includes a solution for the two main issues with using chrome browsers.
Chromium browser integration
Because of ongoing Chrome browser related issues and the requirement is a more light-weight browser option,
we’ve integrated with Monitors AnyWhere Connect a build of Chromium browser and we call it “MCL”.
The new enhancement includes:
– Better management of multiple browser instances when connecting large amount of screens to a single PC.
– Playlist of URLs when running with the new MCL will revolve fluently.
To use the new MCL, simply select it in the drop-down list instead of Chrome or Internet Explorer.
