Why MediaTile

A Samsung VXT alternative every stakeholder can sign off on

MediaTile is one platform on one codebase, designed, built and supported by our own in-house team for 25 years. Because we build everything ourselves, we can rapidly develop the integration a large network needs.

For IT and Security

SOC 2 Type II, no exceptions, with the report and bridge letter available under NDA.
Content stored in your region, Canada or the US, on AWS.
Pull-only architecture. Every connection, including real-time commands, is initiated by the player. No inbound firewall ports.
SAML 2.0 single sign-on with enforced MFA, passkeys and a full audit trail.

For Communications

Unlimited playlists, targeted your way. Target by location, tag or schedule, or use Player Location-Based Playlists (Enterprise) so one playlist with location placeholders serves many locations.
Optional approval before playlists go live. Changed playlists automatically return for re-approval.
AI Widgets such as AI Content create content from a prompt, ready for your layouts (Enterprise).
Emergency alerts from official CAP feeds, targeted by location and translated into 22+ languages (Enterprise).

Management API to approve players and assign playlists to whole groups at once.
Tile AI flags problems early such as disk space, version drift and offline patterns (Enterprise).

New in MediaTile V9

Enterprise controls built into MediaTile V9

MediaTile V9 has shipped 15 releases since May 2026, with general availability in June. These are the capabilities enterprise teams ask about most.

Tile AI fleet triage
Continuous anomaly triage across every player, watching disk space, version drift, playable content, sync errors, offline patterns and recovery state. When you ask Tile AI to take an action, its reply ends with an Action Ledger of what actually happened. Enterprise plan.
Management API for bulk rollout
Approve waiting players and assign playlists to individual players or whole groups through the API, so large deployments do not mean clicking through hundreds of screens.
Approval workflow
Playlists are flagged for re-approval whenever their content changes. Unpublished changes are clearly marked, and manual publishes are recorded in the audit log.
Version history and rollback
Compare and roll back versions in the Layout Designer, Smart Lists and AI widgets.
Soft delete and restore
Deleted items stop playing immediately but can be restored within a configurable retention window, 30 days by default.
Event triggers
Run actions automatically when data conditions change, an API check fires or an alert arrives, with optional date, time and weekday windows.
Emergency alerts
Official CAP feeds, per-location targeting with on/off controls, automatic translation into 22+ languages, and the most severe active alert takes priority. Enterprise plan.
Account security
SAML 2.0 single sign-on, passkeys, MFA you can require account-wide, password policies and automatic lockout of inactive accounts.
Network connectivity test
Check ping, WebRTC, upload and download performance against player devices from a web browser, for pre-deployment validation and remote-site triage.
AI Widgets
AI Content, AI Weather, AI Data and AI Embed. Describe what you need and AI Content creates it, ready to place in your layouts, with version history built in. Enterprise plan.
Layout Designer with animation
Build layouts, including multi-zone layouts, and bring them to life with a range of animations, using assets from your MediaTile library.
Bring your own assets
Create assets in the design tools your team already uses, or in Canva, and bring them into the MediaTile library for use in any layout.

Also included: Smart Scheduling and calendar scheduling, Express View for quick assignments and temporary overrides, Quick Broadcast, no-content detection, synced displays and video walls, live data from Sheets, Excel, CSV and SFTP, programmatic advertising with Hivestack and Vistar, two years of proof of play and WayMapper wayfinding (WCAG 2.2 Level AA).

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions: MediaTile as a Samsung VXT alternative

What does Samsung VXT stand for?

Samsung spells VXT out as Visual eXperience Transformation. It is Samsung's cloud signage platform and its recommended successor to MagicINFO.

Is Samsung VXT free?

No. VXT is a paid subscription. Samsung lists CMS plans (S, P and X) and Remote Management plans on its pricing page.

How much does Samsung VXT cost?

Samsung's VXT pricing page lists its plans and asks you to contact Samsung for prices. When you compare, include plan tier, remote management, add-ons, onboarding and migration work.

What is the difference between MagicINFO S Player and VXT Player?

S Player is the player for MagicINFO on Samsung displays, and VXT Player is the player for Samsung VXT. MediaTile uses neither: it installs on Samsung Tizen 4 and newer displays through URL Launcher.

How long does migration take?

Your free migration assessment gives you a written plan and timeline for your network. Where you grant remote access, we switch your screens for you, in groups at your pace, and they keep playing until they switch.

Why choose MediaTile instead of Samsung VXT?

MediaTile is independent signage software that runs on Samsung displays and every other major player type, so you can choose any major display or player brand. It holds a SOC 2 Type II report with no exceptions, stores content in the region that matches your organization, and includes remote management in one subscription.

Does MediaTile run on Samsung displays?

Yes. MediaTile runs on Samsung Tizen 4 and newer displays, installed through URL Launcher, with Samsung display controls such as reboot, volume, screen capture, scheduled screen off and firmware updates. No MagicINFO server or licence is needed.

Can we mix Samsung with other display brands?

Yes. MediaTile manages Samsung Tizen displays alongside LG webOS, BrightSign, Windows, Android, Linux, Raspberry Pi and Amazon Fire Stick players in one platform, with the same features across them.

Is remote management included?

Yes. Remote management and Samsung display controls are included in the MediaTile Enterprise subscription. There is no separate remote-management plan.

How does data residency compare?

MediaTile stores your content in the AWS region that matches your organization, Canada Central or US East. Samsung's VXT privacy policy says personal information is transferred to the Republic of Korea, the United States and the United Kingdom. Ask any vendor exactly where your data is stored and processed.

We are moving off MagicINFO. Can we choose MediaTile instead of VXT?

Yes. VXT is Samsung's recommended path, but you can choose any platform that supports your displays. MediaTile runs on Samsung Tizen 4 and newer, and migration starts with a free assessment and written report.

Can we move our content across?

Your images and videos move across. Layouts, playlists and schedules are rebuilt in MediaTile, and on the Enterprise plan Tile AI can build groups and playlists from a prompt, an image or a document such as a schedule export or a screenshot.

How do we switch without going dark?

Simply. Start with a free migration assessment, we help you set up, and then each screen is switched to MediaTile, remotely where you grant access. Your screens keep playing on your current system until they switch.

Is MediaTile secure enough for our IT team?

Corum Digital Corporation, MediaTile's parent, holds a SOC 2 Type II report (Security) with an unqualified opinion and no exceptions, available under NDA with a bridge letter. Data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2 or higher in transit, and independent penetration testing found no critical or high-risk issues. Players connect outbound only, so no inbound firewall ports are needed.

Where is our data stored?

On AWS. Your content is stored in the region that matches your organization: Canada Central for Canadian customers and US East for US customers. Account management and some metadata may be processed in either region. If you enable optional integrations or AI features, some processing may take place outside your home country, and AI can be switched off.

Do we need a separate playlist for every location?

Not unless you want one. You can create as many playlists as you need and target them by location, tag, player group or schedule. When one campaign runs across many locations, Player Location-Based Playlists on the Enterprise plan let a single playlist use location placeholders, so shared content plays everywhere and local content plays only where you assign it. That saves maintaining near-identical copies.

How is MediaTile priced?

MediaTile Enterprise is one annual subscription per display, with hosting, updates, remote management, Samsung display controls, remote support, unlimited training, unlimited users and unlimited storage included, and no setup fees. Contact us for a quote built around your network.

What support do enterprise customers get?

MediaTile is built and supported by our own in-house team. Enterprise customers reach a live support agent, and remote support and unlimited training are included with your subscription, during migration and after.

Is MediaTile available in French?

Yes. The MediaTile interface is available in English and French.
