Mvix today introduced a new low-cost digital signage media player, the Mvix DLite, targeted at small to medium-sized applications like trade-show and event video displays, independent convenience stores, small retail establishments, individual office locations and real-estate applications.
According to the announcement, Mvix Dlite is an ESS-based signage player capable of up-scaled video output of up to 720p. With an in-built scheduler, the signage player provides prescheduled boot-up and power-down capability along with autoplay and autoloop functionalities. Mvix DLite is capable of playing videos and image slideshows – both in horizontal (landscape) and vertical (portrait) orientation. The new player is priced at $189.
Mvix DLite's signage features also are suited for independent mode operations at locations which lack network access, the company said.
"During this past year, we have seen a significant reduction in prices for LCD displays and signage systems, enabling its usage in a variety of applications. Digital signage is now replacing static posters and vinyl banners," Mvix Marketing Manager Mark Shoe said in the announcement. "Mvix DLite is targeted to clients who value new technology but have limited budgets."
