The LAVA Box

The media player we build ourselves.

Because the screens are only as reliable as the thing driving them — so we engineer that too, and support it for the life of the room.

THE LAVA BOX
Compact media player · deploys behind the display
STANDARD
LAVA Box

The workhorse. One box per screen — compact enough to mount behind the display, powerful enough to hold analytics-grade dashboards and live social content without dropping frames.

INDUSTRIAL
LAVA Box Industrial

Fanless and passively cooled through a full-length heatsink, with external antennas for difficult RF environments. For enclosures, plant rooms and screens that never power down.

Three models, one platform

Same chassis, same software, same monitoring. Every screen gets its own box, and we specify the model to the content on it — a single dashboard doesn’t need what a panel of a live social wall needs.

TYPICALLY DEPLOYED IN
Single screens — office dashboards and lobby displays
Video walls and live social command centers
The busiest multi-feed walls and broadcast sets

Out-of-band access is our last-resort route into a player and needs Intel vPro, so it isn’t available on Model 3 — self-healing, alerting and 24/7 remote access work the same on all three.

LAVA OS — a hardened Linux build, maintained by us

Why we build our own

01
Built for data, not billboards

Social walls and live dashboards are harder than looping video. The Box is specified for the content our clients actually run.

02
It talks to the platform

Health, uptime and playback report straight into the LAVA Platform — because we wrote both ends.

03
One number to call

No finger-pointing between a player vendor and a software vendor. It’s all us.

Industrial variant & custom configurations

The fanless industrial model, larger storage, more memory and non-standard mounting are specified per project — tell us the screen count and the content and we’ll come back with the build.

Screens that never blink.

Tell us the wall and the content. We’ll specify the players, install them, and watch them for you.
