SyncPlay (Samsung TIZEN Video Wall)
SyncPlay links two or more Samsung TIZEN Commercial Displays to play video in perfect sync, creating a video wall. Only one presentation and one video per display is supported — if you need multiple videos, combine them into a single longer video.
SyncPlay is enabled from Presentation Properties, in the Properties tab of the Presentation Editor.
Requirements
Samsung TIZEN Commercial Displays
All units must be on a wired network
A network switch that supports IGMP
All videos must be the same length (e.g. 10 seconds)
All presentations must have SyncPlay enabled with the same SyncPlay ID
Setting Up a Video Wall
Create a Sign and Presentation for each screen.
Add a video to each presentation.
In Presentation Properties, enable SyncPlay and assign the same ID to all presentations.
Publish all signs.
The displays will begin playing and sync automatically.
Note: On the latest Samsung QM-Series units, SyncPlay video appears in front of all other layers. Any HTML, including dynamic text fields, will be hidden behind a SyncPlay video.
About IGMP
SyncPlay uses multicast networking. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) allows multiple devices to share one IP address so they all receive the same data simultaneously — this is what keeps the displays in sync. Confirm your network switch has IGMP support enabled before setting up a video wall.
