As one of the core parts of your digital signage solution, your media player is essential to make sure your content shows on your display.
However, your player might not be easy accessible.
To help our clients get a better grasp of their current player’s status, we’ve developed the Device Health Portal. This portal let’s users view important characteristics of their player including:
- Connectivity & Network Speed
- CPU Load & Temperature
- And Device Storage & Memory (RAM)
What You’ll Need:
- A compatible digital signage player e.g. Mvix, BrightSign, etc.
- Mvix CMS Software with a supported feature package
- Internet Connectivity
Note: Certain third-party-players will not show all data.
If you meet the requirements listed above, simply follow the steps below:
