netCast Player II – Broadcast entertainment and digital signage applications with the netCast PLayer II
Meida Player SIgnle Board Computer

Use the best Video over IP (VIP) solution for entertainment, digital signage, and security applications with the netCast Player II. The netCast Player converts a digital video stream to NTSC or PAL analog video and stereo audio outputs. The stream can come from the netCast Streamer, netCast Server, or other sources. netCast Player II also supports three modes of operation for additional use and flexibility: Live (display stream from a netCast Streamer), VOD (display stream from the netCast Server), and VOHD (playback locally stored video files). A built-in CompactFlash card interface supports recording video streams to a CF card. The netCast Player II is ideal for distributed video and digital signage by transmitting video anywhere and to multiple clients easily and cost-efficiently. Furthermore, it is configured and managed using HTTP and an Internet browser. Built-in programmable timers support time event triggered video recording. netCast Player II can be supported either as a stand-alone unit or modified to meet existing media system structures.


netCast Server

Supporting netCast Player II is the netCast Server II Windows® application which allows digitized video to be streamed to one or more netCast Players. It automatically finds all netCast Players on the same subnet and streams or downloads different video files to each one.

Whether as a stand-alone unit or in conjuction with the netCast suite of products, netCast Player II is the ideal solution for entertainment and digital signage applications. Applied Data can provide the board off-the-shelf or customized to meet specific customer needs.

The netcast Player II and the netCast Server are part of Applied Data's Video over IP solution. Click here to learn more about the the entire netCast Video over IP family of products.

NOTE

This is fully proven design, available in sample/development quantities and in OEM production runs. However, it is not considered a Stocked Product. Apart from a few engineering samples, we do not keep stock, so an OEM agreement is required to secure production delivery.  Likewise, the specifics of the software configuration need to be evaluated for each application.
