Summary
A Moxie digital signage network consists of a collection of components that communicate with each other via TCP/IP. When a Moxie Player is installed on a display's computer, it also installs a supporting communication service; the Moxie Agent. By design, Moxie Agent is always running so it can respond quickly to any new instructions it receives from the server including remote updates of Moxie Player.

Version update
The following problem listed in the known issues of the previous release has been fixed.
"In some configurations, a Player restart (not a computer restart) would cause the Player to revert back to the default name "Player (COMPUTERNAME)". The current workaround is to add a Metadata field such as "Location" to the Player Manager Window through the Home/View/Columns option. This also applies to any rules that used computer name in the Playlist Builder or player views in the System Manager."
