Works with the screens you already have
New hardware is not a must. From Android boxes to Samsung signage screens, from existing Smart TVs to kiosk PCs, MIA Player plays the same program.
Enter the code on screen and the screen joins the panel
When MIA Player first starts, it shows a 6-character pairing code on screen. Enter that code on the Screens page in the panel and the screen joins your list.
Assign a program and a location to the screen and deploy. The platform and player version of every screen are visible in the panel, and you manage all screens from one list.
- Android TV, Google TV, Android boxes and tablets: MIA Player APK
- Samsung SSSP/Tizen signage screens: signed MIA Player package
- Samsung and LG Smart TV browser, 2018 and newer
- Windows and Linux mini PCs and kiosks: browser in kiosk mode
- Raspberry Pi: Chromium in kiosk mode
Which player should you choose?
They all play the same program; the differences are in setup and in how they behave during outages.
- Android TV and boxes: the MIA Player APK starts on boot, runs full screen, keeps the screen awake and updates itself from your own server. It stores media on the device, so it even starts without the server after a power cut. Details
- Samsung SSSP/Tizen: the signed .wgt package is installed with URL Launcher and keeps media on the screen. Each site needs a Samsung certificate, which MIA prepares. Details
- Smart TV browser: runs on Samsung and LG TVs from 2018 onwards. A build for older engines loads automatically. Details
- Windows, Linux and Raspberry Pi: a browser opens in kiosk mode. The Windows desktop app also has its own full screen player window.
Pairing steps
- Start the player on the device and connect it to your server.
- Note the 6-character code shown on screen.
- Enter the code on the Screens page in the panel and give the screen a name and location.
- Assign a program and deploy.
If resilience to outages matters most, the Android app or the Samsung signage package stands out. Browser-based players are a practical way to put existing devices to use.
