DVP Introduction & Overview

Introduction

Welcome to the user's guide for the MediaPOINTE®
Digital Video Player (DVP). The DVP is one of the
smiplest most cost effective professional media player
in the market. It is capable of receiving media content
via IP/LAN line from other AMD archivers/streamers
(e.g. DMR, DMR HD, and VIdi HD) and playing it locally
on a PC monitor or a nearby LCD TV, big screen
projector, etc. with the same audio and video quality
and resolution of its source.
This user's guide describes how to set up and use
the DVP to play, transport graphics, video and audio
content over IP networks. As with all MediaPOINTE AV-
over-IP products, you can control the DVP by different
methods. These methods include Web Portal interface,
remote control, RS-232 serial ports, and Telnet.
This guide is written for units running 4.0 software. If
the DVP is operating on a different version of software,
some capabilities and screenshots may be different.
Key Applications
The DVP player can be used in a variety of situations for
live communication and collaboration. Such as:
• Play live streamed or archived media content from
multiple AMD archivers/streamers sources.
• Play visual information, designs, and concepts with
dispersed groups of people to gather input during a
video conference
• Play important videoconferences to other locations
such as overflow rooms or remote conference locations
over your corporate network or stream archived or live
employee training sessions across vast geographical
areas.
• Play research discussion, engineering, architecture,
product design, or process analysis when the
participants are not able to meet in one central
location.
