The cloud publishing service of VNNOX one-stop cloud platform includes VNNOX Standard and VNNOX AD, allowing for remote content management and terminal control. In the self-built system, VNNOX Standard is not supported.
This document is intended to help users to quickly get started with VNNOX AD for remote solution publishing. Below is an introduction of some basic concepts.
Remote Publishing
Remote publishing enables users to publish solutions associated with players to remote terminal players via Internet. The solutions will be downloaded and played by terminal players as scheduled.
Remote Control
Remote control enables users to perform real-time or scheduled operations such as restarting players. Scheduled control can be implemented by sending remote control plans.
Players
Players include synchronous players and asynchronous players, which can be associated with solutions and remote control plans.
Terminal Players
Solutions can be downloaded and played by terminal players as scheduled.
VPlayer is an application which serves as a terminal player and can be used for devices installed with Windows.
Taurus series multimedia players are hardware products based on Android and can be used as the terminal players of the asynchronous system.
Player Binding
Player binding is also called terminal binding.
Binding terminal players to players enables users to publish solutions and control displays remotely. Only one player can be bound to a terminal player.
- Synchronous players: Bound to VPlayer
- Asynchronous players: Bound to Taurus with ViPlex
ViPlex includes ViPlex Handy (Android and iOS) and ViPlex Express (Windows).
Solutions
In VNNOX Standard, after users add media and edit the solution page, a solution is created. In the self-built system, VNNOX Standard is not supported.
In VNNOX AD, after users add media, add media and sub-playlists to a playlist and schedule the playlist, a solution is created.
The relationship between the media, playlist and solution is shown in Figure 1-1.
