Cloud

Cloud

Opens the Player Cloud Registration dialog instead of an inline panel.

Use this tile to manage EZPlayer's connection to EZRGB Cloud. The same registration flow appears on first launch and on the Cloud sidebar screen.

Status

The header shows one of:

  • Player ID Registered — cloud connection is active and the player is known to your EZRGB account.
  • Waiting for Registration — scan the QR code or open the registration URL in a browser logged in to EZRGB.
  • Cloud Paused — polling is suspended. Click Resume Cloud to continue; your URL and token are kept.

Polling Schedule

Control when EZPlayer downloads new content from the cloud (sequences, playlists, schedule, layout):

  • Always — content polling runs continuously while cloud is enabled.
  • During scheduled times — content polling runs only inside the Allowed Windows you define. Outside those windows, downloads are suspended.

Registration heartbeat polling always runs while cloud is enabled, even in scheduled mode — this keeps the player visible to the cloud and responsive to remote commands.

If you choose During scheduled times but define no windows, content polling is suspended entirely.

Add windows with Add Window (days + start/end time, same day/time format as viewer control).

Advanced

Cloud Advanced

Expand Advanced for infrequently changed options:

  • Cloud Service URL — override the default EZRGB cloud endpoint (for development/staging or self-hosted installs).
  • Current Player ID — read-only view of the token for this show folder. Generate New creates a fresh ID (requires re-registration). Clear removes the current ID.
  • Set a specific Player ID — paste an existing token to reconnect this folder to a player already registered in the cloud.
  • Polling Interval — how often the player checks in with the cloud:
    • Registration (default 5 seconds) — heartbeat and command pickup.
    • Manifest (default 300 seconds / 5 minutes) — sequence list, downloads, layout, playlists, and schedule sync.
