Scala, Inc. has just announced that it is introducing Scala Enterprise Player for Chromebox.
This new player runs on Google Chrome devices, such as Chromebox, and it is suggested that it is ideal for driving one-to-one digital engagements across wide-ranging industries such as retail, quick-service restaurants, finance etc. As part of this announcement, Scala has also joined the Google for Work Partner Program.
Tom Nix, Scala CEO told us “We are excited to introduce a robust player that’s backed by a technology leader such as Google. Beyond delivering powerful playback, the new device is fully reliable and secure with 24/7 stability, project-critical aspects of all digital solutions”.
Scala’s leading content management system platform allows for complete network control while being easy to use and monitor, as well as fully scalable and extensible with an expansive set of open APIs. Scala Enterprise Player for Chromebox, which is used in conjunction with Chrome Device Management, delivers rich dynamic HTML5 content, advanced scheduling and screen zone division with independent playback in each zone and stands out from other devices by simultaneously playing multiple videos.
The app powering the display runs in Google’s self-contained environment, ensuring users that their information on these devices is secure, encrypted and unable to be accessed by other apps or users.
Highlights of the player include:
- Powerful playback functionality: rich HTML5 content; smooth visual effects incorporating images, video and audio; extensibility via HTML5 and JavaScript; multiple screen zones showing unique content
- Complex digital content scheduled with easy-to-use: playlists with item conditions and Smart Playlists; sequential and shuffle-play; time-table and individual item scheduling
- Support from major hardware manufacturers: Scala Enterprise Player for use with Chromebox runs on Google Chromebox devices from major manufacturers including mini form-factor boxes and commercial-grade media players
- Security and reliability: Google’s operating environment ensures security at every level, from app containment to automatic lockdown – only recovered by the verified user – should the device be compromised
The device connects directly to Scala Enterprise Content Manager, communicates over HTTP/HTTPS and offers maintenance statistics on status, heartbeats and diagnostic logging.
