Embed Sign Feed in regular Presentation

It would be ideal for our Administrative Assistants to only have one Sign Feed to keep up-to-date with announcements, and then that Sign Feed could be embedded in the main presentations' Pre- / Post-Service loops. If an announcement needs added/removed, it would only need done in that one place.
I know we can re-use items, but that gets confusing when you have so many different announcement items and places where they need updated to keep track of. There needs to be a central place to manage these, and it seems like the Sign Feeds would be the best place to do that.

For the time being, you could experiment with adding the sign feed URL into a web page item.
For me, it seems to work ok in preview mode, but only if there are no videos in the sign feed. If I go on air, though, it stops working soon after and displays a globe/cursor icon. Not sure why.0 -
@mikethiessen21-68 We've been using it this way for a few months, with mixed results. It works some of the time, but it's really clunky, and if it reloads (after 999 seconds, which is the longest you can play it in pre-service loop), it gets a "server error" maybe 50% of the time.0

Update: We've been using this work-around (embedding the sign feed URL) for over 3 years - it works, but it's clunky.
1) Doesn't send content to Confidence screens
2) Reloads web page after 999 seconds (not crashing anymore, though)
A native way of embedding this would be preferred.0
