MEDIAEDGE

®

 is a multi-channel, multi-

location delivery system of either high- or 
standard-definition (HD or SD) video 
using standard TCP/IP networks and HD/
SD display devices. Comprised of server, 
encoder, client software, and set-top 
box (STB) components, this flexible and 
modular system is ideal for point-of-sale, 
corporate, and other video-retrieval and 
digital-signage applications.
The HDMA-4000Sync is perfect for 
applications that demand that high-
quality synchronized HD playback across 
multiple screens, or projected 3D.

High-Quality HD Video Playback

HD video is currently the most talked-
about medium for sales promotion and 
information communication. With the 
HDMA-4000Sync, presenting sharp, 
high-resolution HD video couldn’t be 
easier. High-resolution HD video has 
far greater appeal to viewers than 
conventional SD-resolution video. It has 
a strong persuasive power, for highly 

efficient sales promotion and information 
communication.

Supports Scheduled Playback and 

Video-on-Demand (VOD) Playback

In addition to simply playing back HD 
video, the HDMA-4000Sync unit can 
be used for scheduled playback, where 
video content is played back according 
to a user-defined schedule. Viewers can 
also access content on-demand, either 
by using the supplied remote control, 
or through a third-party touch panel that 
operates over an RS-232 serial interface.

Compact Design Suitable for Any 

Location or Application

The HDMA-4000Sync unit is a compact 
size of around 6 in. (W) x 10 in. (D) x 2 
in. (H) and only about 4.5 lbs. in weight, 
but contains all the required functions 
from video content storage to playback. 
As such, any place with a television or 
PC monitor can be used as a screening 
location.

Capable of Accepting DVD/LD 

Player-compatible Commands

HDMA-4000 units are able to accept 
commands (subsets) compatible with 
commercial Pioneer DVD/LD players. This 
enables a smooth transition from DVD/
LD players to HD, making it easy for art 
galleries, museums, and other public 
buildings to upgrade their existing DVD 
or LD video systems to HD.

Genlock-driven Video Playback

If you need your solution to deliver 
video to multiple displays with precise 
timing, such as a video wall animation, 
the HDMA-4000Sync model is perfect 
for you. Each HDMA-4000Sync unit 
features tri-level and black burst sync 
input support, giving you the ability to 
synchronize up to 32 HDMA-4000Sync 
units together using a single genlock 
source.

the hdma-4000sync is a compact, 
standalone, high-definition video 
playback unit that is simple to update 
via a network or usb drive. the 
synchronization facility in the hdma-
4000sync allows up to 32 units to 
be synchronized for frame-accurate 
playback to multiple screens, or units 
can be paired to project exciting 3d 
images in full 1080 resolution.
