Player configuration

In a typical installation CS Player needs no local configuration: everything is managed from your CS Play account. The options below are for special deployments — restricted networks and proxies.

Proxy settings

Windows / Linux

On PC the proxy is configured with the player command-line arguments:

cityscreen-player --proxy-type http --proxy-url proxy.example.com --proxy-port 8888 \
  --proxy-user user --proxy-pass password

--proxy-type accepts none, http or socks. See the full command-line reference.

Android

On Android the proxy is configured with a proxyData.json file placed either in /storage/emulated/0 or in the data directory of the installed application (cloud.cityscreen.player):

{
  "host": "host",
  "port": 8888,
  "user": "user",
  "password": "password",
  "type": "socks"
}

  • user and password may be null for proxies without authentication;

  • type — one of:

    • direct — a direct connection, no proxy;

    • http — a proxy for high-level protocols such as HTTP or FTP;

    • socks — a SOCKS (V4 or V5) proxy.

HTTP proxy support depends on the Android system limitations; if http does not work on your device, use socks.
