Disign's reference component is a crucial tool for efficiently managing your dynamic signage content. Although it initially appears inactive, it becomes a smart copy of another component in your playlist when configured.

By using this component, you can achieve significant performance gains by avoiding repetitive loading of the same items, thereby reducing resource consumption like RAM usage on players. For instance, instead of loading a video multiple times, the reference component allows you to load it once and reuse it, optimizing display smoothness.

Additionally, the reference component ensures perfect playback continuity, which is especially useful for slideshow content or sub-playlists. By reusing existing configurations, you enhance loading speed and minimize system load.
