Overview
Features
The NSP-100 Network Player plays back (decodes)
video/audio data in MPEG format, outputting an analog
signal. It is the ideal digital content player for
advertizing, presentations, training, and other situations.
The following are the principal features of this system.
High Image Quality
PlaysMPEG-2MP@MLencodedmoviesandfull-color
stills, realizing an image quality comparable with that of
a DVD player.
Superimposed Movies, Stills, and Text
With a playlist, you can specify movies, stills, and
superimposed captions to be displayed simultaneously
on the monitor for specified durations.
Large Capacity
The unit incorporates a 40-GB hard disk drive. This
holds about nine hours of video compressed to a bit rate
of 8 Mbps, or about 18 hours of video 4 Mbps. 1)
1) Figures for storage times are for storing movies only; depending on
how the system is used, the movie capacity may be less than these
figures.
Wide Range of Interfaces Supported
•Analog video output: Component video (Y/R−Y/B−
Y or RGB), S-video, and composite video outputs are
available. This allows a flexible choice of display
monitor.
•Analog audio output: Two output channels (left and
right) are available.
•10BASE-T/100BASE-TX: Network connection is
possible.
•RS-232C/GPI: This allows remote control of the
monitor and other external devices connected to this
unit.
Simple Operation From Remote
Controller
Operation is simple, using the supplied RM-NSP1
Remote Controller. The movie controls are intuitive,
being similar to those of a VTR.
One remote controller can be used to control two units.
Compact and Lightweight
The dimensions (width/height/depth)are 180×44×130
mm (7 1/8×1 3/4×5 1/8 inches), and the unit weighs
only about 1 kilogram (2 lb 3 oz), despite incorporating
a large-capacity hard disk drive.
