How To Play A Canva Presentation On A TV

Quick answer: To play a Canva presentation on a TV on loop, download your design from Canva as images or an MP4 video, upload it to PosterBooking, and publish it to the PosterBooking app on your TV. It plays on repeat automatically.

Step By Step

1. In Canva, click Share, then Download, and choose MP4 video or PNG. 2. Sign up free at https://posterbooking.co.uk/register. 3. Upload the file and add it to a playlist. 4. Install PosterBooking on your TV and publish.

Which Canva Format To Choose

For a single static design, download a PNG at the highest quality. For animated designs or presentations with several pages, download an MP4 video so every page plays in order. If you want each page on screen for a set time, download the pages as separate PNG images and set the duration per image in your PosterBooking playlist.

Get The Size Right

Design at 1920 by 1080 pixels for a landscape TV or 1080 by 1920 for a portrait screen. In Canva, use Custom Size before you start designing so nothing is cropped or stretched on the TV.

Why Not Just Cast?

Casting from a laptop or phone stops when the device sleeps. A signage app keeps playing all day, restarts after power cuts and lets you update remotely.

Update Designs Without Touching The TV

When you change a design in Canva, download the new version and upload it to the same playlist in PosterBooking. Every screen updates itself within moments, which is ideal for daily menus, rotating promotions and seasonal campaigns.

Ideas

Menus, promotions, event slides, welcome screens and social posts all work well.
