MEDIAEDGE-SVS4 Server Software

MEDIAEDGE-SVS4

Grass Valley™ MEDIAEDGE® is a multi-channel, multi-location delivery system for HD or SD video using standard TCP/IP networks and HD/SD display devices. Including server, encoder, client software, and set-top box (STB) components, the system is ideal for point-of-sale, corporate and other video retrieval and digital signage applications.

The MEDIAEDGE system delivers content in three ways: video-on-demand (VOD), scheduled playback, and live broadcast. The VOD application selects video clips stored on the MEDIAEDGE-SVS4 server for viewing via a remote control. Scheduled playback allows unlimited number of users to view a pre-programmed arrangement of multiple video clips. Live broadcasting utilizes the real-time capabilities of its encoding devices to transmit live external SD video sources.

The MEDIAEDGE-SVS4 server is a software application for the setup and administration of broadcast systems over a client/server-based network to establish streaming video capabilities. It can be managed and updated via a Web browser.
