MagicINFO W Player (Web-Based Player)
MagicINFO W Player is a web-based solution that plays content published from the MagicINFO Server, including content created with the authoring tool Web Author and other multimedia content such as images, video, and sound. W Player runs on Smart Signage displays that have been converted from S Player, and it can be managed, scheduled, and updated from the Server web console like any other player type.
This section is for administrators who set up and maintain W Player devices, content creators who author W Player content in Web Author, and web developers who build interactive web content with the W Player API ($wp).
