Media players
The media player is a device that connects the display to the network and enables remote updating of the materials. The device accesses the presentations through a cloud-based server and downloads the materials to its own memory.
Network stress is minimal and the firewall doesn’t need to be configured. The media player plays the material located in its memory even if connection is lost.

Identifying the model of the media player
If the user isn’t sure about the model of the media players being used, the model can be easily identified through the overview page.
When the dot in the lower left corner of the display group is clicked, a list of the media players connected to that display group opens.
| Type | Model |
|---|---|
| 10 | PiCube |
| 9 | MediaCube |
| 8 | MediaCube |
| 6 | HDCube |
The beginning of the ID number (e.g.. 10-) tells the specific model of the media player. The most common models being used at the moment are Picube, HDCube and MediaCube (10-, 6-, 9-models).
