Restart the player

From SpinetiX Wiki


There are different methods to restart the player:

Physical access

If you can physically access the player, it's recommended to follow these steps:

  1. Double-press or hold the power button for 3 seconds to trigger a shutdown of the device
  2. Wait for 10–15 seconds for the player to completely shut down (no video signal is displayed).
  3. Briefly press its power button to restart the player.

You can also unplug the power supply and then reconnect it to the electrical network, but the above method is considered safer. Note that for iBX players, you must wait for a couple of minutes before reconnecting the power.

Network access

Control Center home page
Control Center home page

If you have network access to the player, then:

  1. Open Control Center home page
  2. Click the "Restart Now" button.
For advanced users, note that you trigger a player restart through the RPC API (i.e., the restart command) or the Pull Mode's inline RPC action (which also allows setting up a recurring event, such as a daily player restart).
