Guide
What to show on the screens in your bar or lounge
Many venues have screens that show a random TV channel or nothing at all. Used well, screens support the music, invite guests to take part and make the room feel alive.
In short
- Show what is playing so guests stop asking staff
- Place the request QR code where guests can scan it from their seat
- Use visuals that match the energy of the music
- Sports and broadcasts need the right display rights
Five ideas for your screens
Now Playing
The current song and artist information on screen.
Request QR
A QR code that opens song requests in the browser.
Visuals
Motion that follows the music without distracting from it.
Lyrics
Sing-along moments and karaoke nights.
Sports moments
Scores and match times during big matches.
Plan your screens
List your screens
Note each screen, its connection (HDMI or DisplayPort) and who can see it.
Give each screen a job
For example: QR near the tables, visuals behind the bar, lyrics near the stage.
Check readability
Make sure QR codes and text are readable from where guests sit.
Screens with SkafRemix
From Flow, the Edge detects connected screens, sets them up automatically and offers 50 display modes plus QR and Now Playing. Lyrics and sports moments come with Crowd and depend on the song and on display rights.
Questions and answers
Where should the QR code for requests be?
Where guests can scan it from their seat: on table cards or on a screen that is visible from the tables.
Can we show TV broadcasts on bar screens?
Showing broadcasts in public needs the display rights for your venue. Check with the broadcaster or rights holder.
Do screens need to be connected to the internet?
With SkafRemix, screens are connected to the Edge via HDMI or DisplayPort; they do not need their own internet connection.
