Big Stream 1 Quick Guide
This guide explains the setup of a Daktronics "Big Stream 1" system.
This system adds another Digital Media Player (DMP) into an existing
1- or 4-input video control rack. The additional DMP provides an NDI
(Network Device Interface) video output to a compatible customer-
provided streaming device. For more information about setup or
operation of the existing control rack, refer to the documentation
provided with that rack. Refer also to the following YouTube playlist:

3. Mount the DMP unit to the appropriate mounting tray using the
rear thumbscrews. For 4-input racks, also install the half-rack filler
panel into the front-right slot of the tray if desired.

the existing player(s) and processor(s), and then install the DMP
tray into the open space using the same screws.
