Media Player

Purpose

The Media Player device allows you to stream audio files on an nControl to another device on the CobraNet network. The audio is streamed via an AudioScience card.

Notes:

• In order to use the Media Player, you must use an nControl node and it must be fitted with an AudioScience card. nTouch 180 nodes do not support this device.
• The Media Player device is not compatible with MP3 files that contain album artwork information.
• When the project is deployed, media files must be located on the same node that hosts the NWare device playing the files. If the files are located on a different node, you will not be able to play them. We recommend that you manually assign the device playing the files to a role and deploy that role to the node that will host the media files.

If you have not already uploaded the files, see Copying media files to a NION or nControl unit in the nControl Hardware Manual.
