In the Managed Multiple Distributed configuration, a Studio Server distributes content to multiple Players (clients), each connected to a Screen and having its own IP address.

The server determines the content to display based on device ID (for Obscreen Player) or group's id (for Browser Player) of each Player and finally retrieves the playlist assigned to.

  • Management: Managed through one Studio Server URL.
  • Devices: Multiple Players (e.g., Raspberry Pi, PCs) connected to their own Screens.

TIP

Any ▶️ → 📺 pair can be replaced with just a browser or a Smart TV with browser capability
