BrightSign has updated the software and firmware for its BrightSign XD line of solid-state players that enables up-scaling 1080p video content to 4K, enhanced IP streaming, and includes HTML5 support features.
These improvements, found in the official release of BrightAuthor 3.7 software and its companion 4.7 firmware, are available to all existing and future users free of charge.
Among the benefits are enhanced IP streaming that allows XD players to act as IP streaming servers for users who want to stream locally stored content files. Users can also accomplish more using HTML, without encountering the stuttering effect that is often seen on Android devices and PC’s that rely on software-based HTML rendering.
