Introducing MagicInfo Videowall 2
• MagicInfo Videowall 2 is a software based approach to videowall layout and design, using an Ethernet network instead of video cabling as infrastructure.
• MagicInfo Videowall 2 utilizes a standard user-supplied PC to act as a point of control and distribution, and over a LAN, send content to Samsung PC modules embedded in Samsung videowall LFDs.
• This allows for the entire videowall system to be treated as a single unit, and content to be scheduled dynamically. • MagicInfo Videowall 2 is designed to be a lower cost alternative to dedicated hardware based videowall processors.
