HMP100 User Guide v2.0

INTRODUCTION

SpinetiX HMP100 is the first networked Hyper Media Player appliance dedicated to the

professional digital signage industry. In this field it represents for final users, integrators

and service providers a better alternative of choice to personal and industrial computers

and proprietary dedicated software.

HMP100 offers a standard and simplified way to schedule, combine, update, animate,

stream and display video, audio, vector graphics, pictures and text with low acquisition

and operational costs. The rich set of functionalities offered by HMP100 simplifies the

implementation, management and maintenance of effective and modern audio/visual

communication solutions.

HMP100 is not a simple media player, but an Hyper Media player. It combines in an

embedded solution all the display functionalities of a PC.

What is Hyper Media? As defined by Wikipedia, Hyper Media “is used as a logical

extension of the term hypertext in which graphics, audio, video, plain text and hyperlinks

intertwine to create a generally non-linear medium of information.”

A movie or a video clip is a typical linear content: you watch it from the beginning to the

end. The content in a W B page is a typical example of non linear content: multiple

media elements are dynamically and interactively consumed. Servers use PHP scripts and

databases to retrieve live content and allow the browser to display the latest information

in an interactive and dynamic way.

The HMP100 allows you to obtain the same result on any digital screen or projector and

display true Hyper Media content exactly as you can do with a PC-based solution.

Thanks to its compact form factor, robust and dedicated hardware, HMP100 turns any

digital display into a network device.

In this short manual we collect the information published on the W B on HMP100. Read

this information to quickly get started with HMP100 units.

HOW IT WORKS?

SpinetiX HMP100

simplifies the publishing and maintenance of your digital signage

project.

Connected to digital displays through HDMI and VGA, HMP100 is capable of rendering

combinations of media elements from a rich set of formats: audio, video, vector graphics,

pictur

es and text. HMP100 natively implements the open standards required to schedule,

update, stream, and animate each supported media. Distributing content from a central

location onto a specific display is as easy as publishing a web page.

As a network appli

ance HMP100 offers plug & play functionalities that simplifies

installation, remote maintenance and monitoring. From anywhere, your network of digital

displays is under control.
