FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the CF Player®8K

Does the CF Player®8K really achieve true 8K?

Yes. The 8K outputs true 8K (7680×4320) at 60 frames per second and renders native 4K graphics in HTML5 and user interfaces.

How many videos can the 8K play simultaneously?

Up to ten parallel 1080p streams in the HTML5 browser, output on two video outputs (HDMI + DisplayPort) as an extended desktop.

How precisely does the CF Player®8K synchronise multiple screens?

The 8K synchronises frame-accurately as a group. Unlike the Light and 4K2 (software-based PTP), the 8K uses a hardware-based PTP time base for especially precise, drift-free playback. For the use case see video wall synchronisation.

Is the CF Player®8K suitable for continuous operation?

Yes. Industrial-grade hardware, built for maintenance-free 24/7 operation.

What network and control interfaces does the 8K have?

Two Gigabit LAN ports (separate control and content networks), WLAN/hotspot and optional 4G. For controlling light and equipment: DMX, Art-Net, relays, RS232 and UDP.
