Abstract
A display server automatically determines layouts of display walls. The display server receives one or more setup messages from a display wall and assigns one or more universal resource locators (URLs) to one or more display screens in the display wall based on the setup messages. The display server sends one or more webpages including different patterns to display on the display screens in the display wall and receives back display information showing the patterns displayed on the display screens. The display server then generates a configuration file identifying an arrangement of display regions in the display wall based on the display information. The display server also may operate a content manager that accesses the configuration file to identify the layouts for the different display walls and identify storyboards with similar layouts.
