FAQ

Q: What is the HD-A5L, and why is it called a “dual mode” player box?

A: The HD-A5L is an LED display multimedia player that integrates video, images, GIF animation, text, WPS documents, spreadsheets and clock functions in a single unit. It is called “dual mode” because it supports both asynchronous playback — content stored and played on the box itself and updated over Wi-Fi, Ethernet, USB or an optional 4G/5G module — and synchronous playback, where the screen is driven live from an HDMI input with automatic switching. One box therefore covers scheduled advertising loops and live event content.

Q: How much screen can one HD-A5L drive?

A: Up to 1.30 million pixels, with a maximum single-screen width of 16,384 pixels and a maximum height of 8,192 pixels. Output is delivered through 2 × Gigabit Ethernet ports that cascade HD-R series receiving cards, so a single player can build large or unusually shaped screens.

Q: How many videos can it play at the same time?

A: It decodes and plays multiple channels simultaneously — 2 × 4K, 6 × 1080p, 10 × 720p or 20 × 360p, depending on your source resolution. Supported video codecs include MPEG-1/2, MPEG-4, H.264/AVC, H.264 MVC, H.265/HEVC, Google VP8/VP9, H.263, VC-1 and Motion JPEG, alongside JPEG, BMP, GIF, PNG and WEBP images.

Q: Can I manage several players without visiting each site?

A: Yes. The HD-A5L connects to the Xiaohu Cloud platform for remote cluster management, so multiple players can be monitored and updated from one place. It also supports a mobile app (“Screen Control”) for local wireless control, and an optional 4G/5G SIM module for locations with no fixed network.

Q: Does it support environmental monitoring and what are the installation requirements?

A: The player provides 2 × sensor inputs for external environment-monitoring sensors — temperature, humidity, brightness, wind speed and direction, noise, PM2.5/PM10, CO and more — so the display can react to real conditions. It measures 248 × 132.7 × 42.3 mm, weighs approximately 1040 g, runs on DC 5–12 V (max 18 W), carries an IP20 rating and runs on Android 11.0.

Q: What is included with the player?

A: The standard package includes the A5L player, a power adapter, an HDMI cable, a Wi-Fi antenna and a certificate of approval. A 4G/5G antenna is added when the optional cellular module is configured. Please avoid exposing the unit to water during operation.
