Installation and Setup of Q-Play on Player

This guide walks you through step-by-step how to configure date and time on a QBic player, enable automatic reboot, access USB content, and ensure that Q-Play starts automatically.

It is important that the time settings are correct so content in Q-Play is displayed properly.

How to do it on QBic:

  1. Go to Settings via the gear icon on the home screen.

  2. Select System > Date & Time

  3. Choose Select time zone and set it to GMT+01:00 – Central European Standard Time (Denmark).

  4. Go back – the changes will be saved automatically.

2. Enable Scheduled Reboot

The QBic player can automatically reboot at a fixed time to ensure stable performance.

How to set up Schedule Reboot:

  1. Go to Settings.

  2. Enable Schedule Reboot.

  3. Choose a time, for example 04:00, and select the days the player should reboot (recommended: daily).

  4. Press Save or go back.

3. Insert USB and Access Content

Q-Play software and other content can be transferred via USB.

How to do it:

  1. Download this APK file to your PC: https://storage3.q-play.net/releases/android/Q-Play-2.2.32-universal-release.apk

  2. Insert a USB drive into your PC and move the APK file onto it.

  3. Plug the USB stick into the QBic player’s USB port.

  4. Open the File Manager app.

  5. Locate your USB under USB Storage – it will appear with the USB's name.

  6. Navigate to the APK file and tap it to install the Q-Play software.

4. Add Q-Play as Default Content

To ensure Q-Play starts automatically, it must be added via the home screen.

How to do it:

  1. Go to the home screen and select Content.

  2. Press Add.

  3. Select Q-Play from the list of available apps.
