Yodeck is an online service! So, Internet access is required for your Player to be managed properly.
When a player is connected to the internet, a continuous connection between the player and our servers is established. That connection is responsible for managing the player and updating the player’s status in the Yodeck dashboard. It requires up to 300 MB/month.
What happens when I push content to a player?
The media content videos(not the streams), images, documents, sound files(not the streams), and a few static apps are downloaded locally to the player. So, data usage will depend on how many files you plan to use and their sizes.
If, for example, you have video files, images, and documents that you would like to display and their total size is 2 GB, the players will download this data once (2GB) and nothing else (except, of course, the 300MB/month that was mentioned in the beginning).
If the content to be pushed includes streams, web pages, and dynamic apps, the total required bandwidth depends on the content and cannot be specified in advance.
⚠️IMPORTANT
If you are on a metered/limited Internet connection (e.g., a mobile carrier or per-traffic/per-hour access), please contact us to ensure you can use our service over those connections.
