MSPlayer | 8-28 : Fall 2026 Release

Amazon Signage Stick management: Integration with Amazon’s updated device-management API, including screen rotation for images and video. Video rotation requires a compatible device OS update.

Remote video diagnostics: An optional on-screen diagnostic overlay helps support teams evaluate live-stream and video playback performance.

More useful error reporting: Player error reporting focuses on persistent conditions that need attention, reducing transient messages.

Improved QUbeyond menu-data processing: Compatible layouts can request only the menu items needed for a display, reducing local data-processing overhead, particularly on LG TVs.

Layout status reporting: Compatible layouts can now report a custom status message to the MediaSignage Server. This provides additional visibility into layout-specific conditions to support monitoring and troubleshooting.

Tableau display enhancements: Updated Tableau integration content supports displaying non-interactive PNG snapshots of dashboards, providing an alternative to interactive rendering.

Addressed an HLS live-stream freeze condition that could remain undetected even when video was buffered.
Improved manual TV configuration when the provisioning connection is unavailable, allowing installers to remain in Advanced Settings while entering configuration details.
Adjusted Signage Stick watchdog behavior so automatic restarts do not interrupt manual configuration.
Added an additional forced-reboot recovery mechanism for update troubleshooting.
Addressed proxy compatibility issues affecting access to external content services, including DigiChief.
Addressed an issue where closed captions could be unavailable even when present in a live stream, including after switching away from and returning to the live-video screen.
