Digital signage players: a box for every screen

The box behind the panel, or the app inside.

A screen already in place does not need replacing to join the platform: an E-BOX player fits behind it, or the E-SOFT app installs inside it.

In practice?

Three steps
before the first broadcast.

You do not need to harmonise your screen network before using it for the first time.

1We look at your current screen networkDo your screens run Android TV or a SoC system? E-SOFT installs directly inside them. Otherwise, an E-BOX player connects via HDMI: allow one minute.
2You log in to E-MANAGERFrom a computer, a tablet or a phone: the interface opens in a browser, with nothing to install. You create your playlists, choose the screens, schedule the time slots.
3Your content stays up to dateA replaced visual reaches the whole network in a few seconds, and widgets refresh on their own. And if the internet connection drops, the screen keeps playing.

YOUR MOST FREQUENT QUESTIONS

FAQ — E-BOX players

It is the small box that runs your content on a screen with no built-in system: it fits behind the panel, connects via HDMI and to the network, and receives from E-MANAGER the playlists you schedule.

No, not always. An Android TV, Tizen or webOS screen has its own built-in memory: the E-SOFT app installs directly on it, with no box. An E-BOX player is only needed for a screen without a compatible system.

The Raspberry Pi 5 in an Argon NEO 5 case for Full HD display, the Giada DN25 for industrial sites and continuous operation, the Giada VM27 for scoring and 4K content. Every Android player, BrightSign players and compatible ChromeOS devices also join the platform. Your certified reseller advises you based on your screen network.

Yes: EMITY guarantees compatibility with every screen manufacturer. If it has a video input, a screen connects to an E-BOX player; if it has its own built-in memory, E-SOFT installs on it. Your current screen network is not obsolete: it becomes the starting point.

The screen keeps playing the content already received. As soon as the connection is back, scheduled updates arrive on their own.

Updates are automated: less maintenance, fewer site visits. A visual replaced in E-MANAGER reaches the whole network in a few seconds.

Yes: the free trial lasts 3 months, with no commitment, on your own screens.
