What considerations need to be taken into account when choosing a PC as a digital media player?

Answer:
Every digital media network will have different technical requirements. Although it is possible to choose a PC system and configuration that will cope with the majority of circumstances, the following inputs will have a direct bearing on the type of PC and graphics chipset that you would choose for your deployment:
  • Type and format of the media that will be displayed
  • Complexity of overlays that may be used
  • Type of display and the resolution of that display
  • Network type (GSM, LAN, WIFI etc.)

We recommend a PC configuration that has a compatible RAM / CPU chipset combination, ideally assembled around the Intel Atom processor.

Please note: The hardware specifications in this document should only be used as a guideline. We STRONGLY recommended that you thoroughly test any particular combination of PC, screen and media before any bulk purchase decisions are made.
