MAG520 –
Linux set-top boxes
with 4K and HEVC support

MAG520 and MAG520w3 are high-performance Linux set-top boxes based on the Amlogic S905X2 chipset. They have an ARM Cortex-A53 CPU that is 25% more powerful than previous MAG generation and a better GPU, which ensures smooth 4K video playback at 60 fps.

With MAG520, operators can guarantee uninterrupted service. Infomir's API ensures easy integration of the device into any project already using MAG set-top boxes. Integration of MAG520 and MAG520w3 with third-party middlewares and DRM/CAS is available upon request.

For operators and users
worldwide

MAG520 can be connected to any TV, projector, or home theater with an HDMI port, letting users enjoy their favorite TV shows, video-on-demand, and their IPTV/OTT providers' other content as well as open files from external storage or local network.1 For operators, the device allows you to launch services with high-quality content, reliable tech support, and unique UI/UX.

Linux 4.9 with the best user
experience

MAG520 is a reliable, high-performance device, it can run for several months without being rebooted while delivering a high-quality user experience. Operators can easily develop their own apps and integrate the set-top box into their project.

4K HDR and HEVC

MAG520 easily handles 4K HDR 60 fps content2 and supports HEVC and other modern codecs enabling operators to deliver high-resolution content even over low-bandwidth networks. It takes a 32 Mbps connection to watch an H.264-encoded 4K video stream, while the HEVC-encoded one requires half as much bandwidth.3

Ethernet port and
550-Mbps Wi-Fi module

The MAG520 is available as the MAG520w3, which includes a built-in dual-band Wi-Fi module.

MAG520

An Ethernet-only model that can only be connected to the internet with an Ethernet cable

MAG520w3

A model combining Wi-Fi (max. 100 Mbps at 2.4 GHz, max. 550 Mbps at 5 GHz)4 and Ethernet connectivity (100 Mbps)

Advanced API for apps and
integrations

Infomir has created an API to facilitate integration with CAS/DRM and app development. The apps for the Linux-based MAG set-top boxes are developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Infomir provides extensive documentation for developers' convenience.

There are no limitations as to apps' purpose: operators can make apps for their middleware, and system integrators can develop software for hotels, cruise ships, and rotational camps.

8-channel Dolby Digital Plus™ sound

With MAG520 and MAG520w3 set-top boxes, viewers can enjoy high-quality audio on modern audio systems, home theaters, and TVs. The crystal clear sound provides the level of immersion that makes you feel as if you were actually in the film, TV show, or TV broadcast.5

Fuss-free integration into
existing services

For projects already powered by MAG devices, the transition to MAG520 requires minimal resources. All integrations and apps for the old Linux-based MAG set-top boxes will require little to no patching to run on the new device.

Customized software, cases,
packaging, and remote control

With Infomir, operators can boost their brand promotion, too: we offer software and firmware customization, and we apply branding to set-top box casings, remote controls, and packaging.

With branded software, device body, and packaging, a vendor can stand out from the competition and boost their brand awareness.

An excellent choice for
hotels and cruise ships

There is no need to keep MAG520 connected to the internet—it can play content from both external storage and NAS.

This is an indispensable advantage for cruise ships or remote locations without internet access. If you have file storage, the set-top box can play content you put there.

Practical remote control
with large buttons

The MAG520 comes with an IR remote control included. The remote's body is made of anti-slip ABS plastic. Each key is designed to withstand 300,000 presses.

The remote's IR system and code pages are configurable: it can be reconfigured to not interfere with the operation of the TV, air conditioner, and other nearby devices.

USB ports for a keyboard and mouse

Unlike dongles, the MAG520 supports connecting peripheral USB devices: a keyboard and a mouse. These peripherals make it easier to use the browser, enter passwords, and find content in applications.

A powerful client device
built with an Amlogic
chipset

Owing to the new Amlogic S905X2 chipset complete with a high-performance ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, MAG520 packs 25% more power than last-generation Linux set-top boxes, making content playback smooth and the interface snappy.

FAQ

Here, you will find answers to frequently asked questions by both operators and users.

Does Infomir have a set-top box knowledge base?

We do, and we update it often. It contains all kinds of how-tos and answers to the questions about Linux, Android™, and Android TV™ devices, the Ministra TV platform multiscreen middleware, and the Ministra Player client app.

Operators will find there the guidelines for app development as well as MAG set-top box configuration and customization. All of this comes in handy for the operators' tech support to quickly resolve problems and configure their users' devices.

Does Infomir provide API documentation?

We do. In fact, our MAG JS API is fully documented. We have guides to show developers how to make apps for the MAG set-top boxes and do integrations with middleware, CAS/DRM, and other solutions.

It's a real time-saver for developers—they won't need to call tech support.

What is MAG520's default middleware?

By default, the devices are compatible with the Ministra TV platform and require no additional integration in the projects that run it. MAG520 is well-optimized to work with a variety of the platform's versions.

Can MAG520 be integrated with third-party middleware and CAS/DRM?

It can. MAG520 can be integrated with all kinds of middleware and CAS/DRM through its API.

Infomir is planning to roll out integration with the Widevine and Zixi CAS/DRM sometime in the future and offers Securemedia and Verimatrix integration on request.

For how long will MAG520 stay operational?

Like any Infomir device, the MAG520 set-top box is built to last years. It can run for months on end without rebooting, freezing, or breaking down. By choosing MAG520, operators get a reliable device that helps save tech support's efforts.

Where is MAG520 made?

MAG520 is designed and assembled in Odessa (Ukraine), where Infomir's headquarters are located.

What do other operators say about MAG set-top boxes?

MAG set-top boxes have amassed a millions-strong user community all around the globe. We even have a place for operators, distributors, and system integrators to share their experiences.
