-MMPIS is currently using [[http://www.screenlyapp.com/ose.html|Screenly Open Source Edition]], though other options are still being explored. The image and video assets can be stored locally on the Pi, or remotely on the web.

 +**2016-10-23** - MMPIS is still fully functional. Yay!
 +
 +**2015-05-19** - MMPIS is still fully functional. Huzzah!

 +**2014-02-01** - MMPIS is fully functional again. The Ethernet cable was unplugged. ;)

 +**2014-01-27** - MMPIS is malfunctioning. Pete or Chris will take a look as time allows. (The first screen is fine, so the system works, but the rest of the screens are on a server out on the Internet, which suggests the MMPIS is not properly on the network or cannot reach the server. And yes, the server is fine.)
  
 **2013-12-29** - MMPIS has been permanently installed in the lobby. **2013-12-29** - MMPIS has been permanently installed in the lobby.
