IAdea Media Appliances complement PC players by delivering high quality video on your Scala network. They behave like PCs on the same Scala system– Heart-beats, play-logs, smart play-lists, and content scheduling are handled using the same easy-to-use Scala Content Manager web-based user interface. Unlike general-purpose PC players,Adobe Flash, Scala-script, Scala Designer dynamic content, and multiple monitors are NOTsupported on IAdea players. Instead, plan and publish these content types to neighboring Scala PC players to achieve a complementary/contrasting effect.
