Elevator display software playback continues when the signal drops
An elevator car is where Wi-Fi is weakest. MIA Player stores content on the screen itself, and in a real Wi-Fi outage test in an elevator with a Samsung screen, playback never stopped.
- Samsung SSSP/Tizen and Android
- Portrait 9:16 programs
- No warning on screen
Why elevator screens are hard
The car moves, the signal changes floor by floor, and reaching the screen takes a technician.
What often happens today
- An error or blank page appears when the signal drops
- Content is changed by USB stick, inside the car
- A frozen screen is noticed only after a complaint
- Landscape content looks small on a portrait screen
With MIA
- Content is stored on the device and keeps playing
- Changes are made in the panel and arrive on reconnect
- Offline screen alerts by webhook or Telegram
- 9:16 programs and 0, 90, 180 or 270 degree rotation
Set it up once, then leave it
On a Samsung signage screen the MIA Player package installs through URL Launcher, and MIA prepares the Samsung certificate for the site. On Android boxes MIA Player starts on boot, stores videos on the device and even starts without the server after a power cut.
Management uploads notices to the "Asansör" folder, and cars tagged "blok:a" show only Block A notices. If a car drops off, the technical team gets a Telegram message, and another when it is back.
- Rotate either on the TV or in MIA, never both
- Restart, screen on/off and identify from the control centre
- Time rules use the server's clock, even offline

Elevator screen questions
Samsung SSSP/Tizen signage screens run a signed MIA Player package with no extra device, and MIA prepares the Samsung certificate per site. Android-based screens and boxes use the MIA Player app.
With the local network up, only weather, exchange rates and RSS stay at their last values; YouTube and web pages need internet. If the network drops entirely, stored content keeps playing.
Yes. The signage report gives plays and seconds per content by screen and date, as CSV. The "every N loops" frequency and a daily limit tune the ad rotation.
