Step 2: When do you want it to begin and end?

Step 2 is all about setting your date range in which the content will play. If the design you are publishing will always be relevant, feel free to leave the default option of 'Play Indefinitely' selected. However, if your design will only benefit residents for a certain time period, such as an event highlight or a holiday themed design, be sure to set an end date for your design.

The default selection for repeating is Daily, however you can also choose:
