Local networking and VPN
Is it possible to set up a BrightSign HD210 on a VPN and remotely access it as if it were on the same physical network? I ask because I have a client who is purchasing around 1600 of these units over the next two years as part of a major brand and store overhaul ( around 8 units per store, with 6 40" TVs in portrait mode and 2 40" in landscape mode). They previously used Navori Tycoon with one PC based player in each store, but due to overwhelming advantages have switched to the BS. What they do miss from a CMS perspective is the ability to see real-time updates on the players, as in what playlist they are playing, whether or not they are connected to the network etc. As we are Australian, and they do not wish to use a US-based CMS like the BrightSign Network, and they also wish to move away from paying any licencing fees, there are only limited options that I can see that will give them back the features I mentioned.
