High definition network ready media player.
Supports full 1080p HD content as well as standard definition, standard
looping, data logging of activity, scheduling, playlists, button press
interactivity and more!
The VS-500 ships with either DV Sync ('Pull') or DV Connect ('Push') utilities. Please specify which one you need
(if any) pre-ordering. Please note that you cannot retrospectively switch between
the two utilities.
DV-Sync ('Pull') enables remote management of many individual players or a group of networked players from an FTP site.
DV-Connect ('Push') allows clients to set up a media player on their internal network infrastructure.
Each player is assigned an IP address and users simply drag and drop
(‘push’) content files into the relevant player’s media folder.
Unit ships with 1GB CF card and power supply but no AV out leads.
Accessories at extra cost include button press
interactivity, trigger of playback by motion sensor and more. Please visit the link below for more details;
