It's Playback Time

Gefen has released two new digital signage media players, expanding its range of solutions aimed at the DS market.
 
Both media players have Wi-Fi capability and are SMIL (synchronized multimedia integration language)-compliant and work with any computer LAN system, either by connecting directly to the LAN or by using the Wi-Fi connection. Users can playback 1080p Full HD video for high quality visuals. These players also output component and composite video with two channel (L/R) audio and one-line scrolling text. Each player comes pre-loaded with more than ten templates to select from, so users with little to no design experience can still jump-start their digital signage applications. Developers state that calendar-based scheduling from any computer on the LAN makes operating both players easy and convenient.
 
The Digital Signage Media Player with Wi-Fi offers 4 GB of internal flash memory and the secure flash card slot can host up to 16 GB of memory, if needed. Keyboards, mice, hard drives and more can be connected through the two USB 2.0 ports.
 
The Digital Signage Media Player with Wi-Fi Plus offers the same features but with the added ability to connect live video using a composite video input with audio. Users can also overlay content and separate the video into four quadrants for more complex systems. RS-232 for control of external displays or other connected devices is also included.
 
Both players support today's most popular media formats, including MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG L2, MP3, H.264/MPEG-4, and VC-1 codec formats. Gefen provides a number of optional CMS (content management system) providers for both players.
