What’s possible with the Browser Player? 

• Image: JPEG, PNG*
• Web Pages 
• Marketplace Apps/Widgets including Widget SDK capabilities (check our Widget Development Framework - Widget SDK page for further info)

Please note

The Browser Player is designed for short lived playback in a single screen scenario such as screensavers on-screen collaboration solutions and not for 24/7 digital signage where we have more robust player solutions.

Whilst it's unlikely that you will exhibit any problems running the Browser Player 24/7 or across large canvases (multiple screen) it’s worth nothing that the Browser Player lacks the inherent watch dogs, stability controls and configuration options found in our dedicated digital signage media players.

In scenarios where stability and extended canvases are required we recommend that purpose built media player solutions are deployed.

Please Note

Images are supported on the Browser Player, but are not supported by the Web Content Licence. If you wish to display images you will need to use a Standard Signagelive licence.
