A player is a digital signage media device. It can display videos, images, audio, and custom content that has been created through the Korbyt platform.

Using equipment that is not powerful enough for content you expect to show can cause processing issues
Using equipment that is TOO powerful does not have an impact on Korbyt or your signage, and leaves a path to enhancing the service later with more complex functionality
Common Player Questions
What is Meeting Room Signage?
Meeting Room Signage is used in conference rooms or shared collaboration spaces. It allows for the reuse of existing hardware, to display digital signage content, when a meeting is not in session. This enables the maximization of existing hardware ROI and helps prevent supply chain challenges.
Meeting Room Signage is intended to provide advanced Scheduling Information, Emergency Alerts, and Company-wide Announcements.
What is Room Scheduling?
Room Scheduling is Space Management software that allows your end-users to see when a room or multiple rooms are available for use. The Korbyt Anywhere Platform allows for almost any type of Scheduling software integration (Outlook, Google Calender, etc) while also allowing a uniform digital content-aesthetic and multi-format functionality.
