Xibo Signage are pleased to announce Xibo for Android v1.8 R108. This release works with Xibo CMS version 1.8 and has legacy mode for versions 1.4, 1.6, 1.7.
Features and Issues resolved in this release:
- Blacklist MAC Addresses for certain Android 7 devices (00:15:18:01:81:31) and the Neo-U9-H.
- Add extra logging to help diagnose CMS connection problems
- Default name for new Players changed from "Android" to the Device Serial Number for easy identification in the CMS.
