Complete Solution
The Net-Top-Box is a Digital Signage Solution-in-a-box.
There is no software to install as it comes pre-loaded on the hardware.
It is a on-off purchase with no recurring licence fees.
Browser Controlled
The Net-Top-Box is installed on the network and controlled through any web browser on any PC or Mac in the organisation.
The Net-Top-Box does not require a keyboard or mouse itself.
VGA Output
The Net-Top-Box can send a single VGA output to a large display device such as an LCD, plasma or projector.
It's not intended to stream the output to other computers.
You Create It, We Play It
Media content must be finalised before uploading to the Net-Top-box.
Depending on your choice of media, you can do this with any common Video, Photo, Flash or HTML editing tools.
If an external media house is being used, they will use the appropriate tools.
Multi-Media
The Net-Top-Box supports a large number of multi-media formats in combination.
This allows you to combine video or live TV with scrolling text, photos, Flash and web content.
Store and Play
Content is uploaded onto the Net-Top-Box once, stored on the disk, inserted into a playlist and then played from the disk.
The Net-Top-Box is not normally used to play streams from a separate server,
it is better to copy that media onto the Net-Top-Box and play it from there.
Once content is uploaded to the Net-Top-Box, its network bandwidth requirement becomes negiligible.
Circular and Synchronised Playlists
Every zone in the display layout has its own playlist.
Every playlist runs in a loop so there are never any gaps and there is no timeline scheduling.
Zones can be optionally synchronised to link playlists.
Locally Customisable
Content that has been defined as locally customisable can be customised by individual subscribers.
For example; allowing one Net-Top-Box to welcome visitors to the "London Office"
while another Net-Top-Box in the same 'Channel' welcomes visitors to the "Sydney Office".
Video Distribution
The VGA output can be sent to 3rd party video distribution hardware to send to as many displays as the hardware will support,
within the hardware's distance constraints.
Every display will show exactly the same image.
Scalable
One Net-Top-Box can clone its media from (subscribe to) another Net-Top-Box over the network.
This standard feature, known as
Channel Manager
, allows the same output to be shown on displays more than 500m away,
or even on the other side of the world.
The diagram below shows how it works.
