Do i need a Media Player for digital signage?

Yes, in most cases, a media player is necessary for digital signage. The media player serves as the device or software application responsible for displaying content on the digital signage screen. Typically, it receives content from a content management system (CMS) or a network connection and then plays it back on the screen. This player can either be a standalone hardware device, such as a digital signage player or a media player box, or it can be software installed on a computer or a smart TV. 

The choice of media player depends on factors such as the complexity of the content, the size of the deployment, and any specific requirements of the digital signage network. While some digital signage displays may have built-in media players, larger or more sophisticated deployments often require a separate media player to ensure smooth playback and reliable performance
