Abstract

Embodiments disclosed herein are related to a method that can include discovering, by a platform abstraction layer (PAL), configuration data related to hardware associated with a media display, generating and supporting, by the platform abstraction layer, a common set of platform application programming interfaces (APIs) for displaying content on the media display according to the discovered hardware, receiving, by a platform shim, check-in instructions from a content management system, and causing, by a media player engine, the media display to display the content in accordance with the check-in instructions by using the common set of platform APIs generated by the PAL.

Claims20

Dependent claims

An apparatus comprising:

a media display configured to display content;
a processor;
a media player engine comprising first instructions executable by the processor to display content in accordance with check-in instructions and to output content display data;
a platform abstraction layer (PAL) comprising second instructions executable by the processor to discover configuration data related to hardware associated with the media display and to support a common set of platform application programming interfaces (APIs) according to the discovered hardware to be used by the media player engine to display the content on the media display in accordance with the check-in instructions;
a platform shim comprising third instructions executable by the processor to receive the check-in instructions from a content management system and translate the content display data from the media player engine to be used by the PAL for display of the content on the media display in accordance with the check-in instructions.
