Overview

of MediaMVP

MediaMVP bridges the home PC with television sets. MediaMVP is located at the TV set,
and through your home local area network receives digital audio (MP3, W M A and W AV
music), digital video (MPEG-1, MPEG-2 or DivX video), digital pictures (JPEG, BMP and
GIF digital pictures) and Internet radio from a PC. MediaMVP then decodes the digital media
and displays the decoded media on a TV set, TV monitor or plasma monitor. On your TV set,
MediaMVP lists media which can be played.

MediaMVP can be connected to your local area networks via either its 10/100Mbps Ethernet
connection or the built-in 54Mbps 802.11g wireless adaptor . It can also connect to Ethernet
based LAN adapters such as Home Plug or wireless game adapters. The PC where both the
MediaMVP software is loaded plus where your media files are located needs to be on the same
network node as the MediaMVP. In general, if you have the PC and the MediaMVPs connected to
the same network hub, access point or router, this requirement is satisfied.

Up to 12 Medi aMVPs can be connected on a network. This means you can have a
MediaMVP connected to the TV in your bedroom, one to the TV in the living room, one in

the den, etc. The only limitation is that all the MediaMVPs need to be on the same network
segment as the PC where your MediaMVP files are stored.

Internet radio is played by having the PC connect to an Internet radio station and then send
streaming MP3 or W M A audio from the radio station to the MediaMVP. Only internet radio
stations which are directly accessible via the Internet are supported.

DivX video playing is done via a transcode process. When you chose to play a DivX video,
your PCs processor first decodes the DivX video in software, then reencodes the video into

a high bit-rate MPEG-1 format. The PC then transmits the high bit-rate MPEG video over
your network to the MediaMVP, where it is decoded and played on your TV set.

Step 1: Connecting MediaMVP to your network or PC

Technically speaking

MediaMVP s CPU engine (a 350 DMIPS PowerPC) runs the Linux operating system, plus
has dedicated multimedia hardware for decoding MPEG video, audio and music.

MediaMVP runs in a client/server system , where the server can be a PC running either
Windows XP Home, XP Professional or Windows 2000. The PC can be used for normal tasks
while acting as the MediaMVP server. The application running on the MediaMVP is loaded
from the PC when you turn on MediaMVPs power, therefore allowing updateable software
via Internet downloads.

MediaMVP decodes full CCIR601 resolution NTSC and PAL encoded MPEG-2 bit streams in
real time, up to and including 720x480 (NTSC) or 720x576 (PAL). MPEG video rates range
from 1.5 Mbps to 10 Mbps (higher in bursts), limited by the LAN bandwidth. MediaMVP will
upscale 320x240 V C D video to full screen. A tunable Anti -Flicker Filter is included to improve
the video quality of media seen on the TV set.

You can connect MediaMVP to your PC through a network or directly to the PC or laptop.
You can use either method.

Connecting MediaMVP through a Network:

l Wired connection

Using a standard Ethernet network cable (the Ethernet cable supplied or any Ethernet cable
less than 300 feet long), plug one end into the LAN port of the MediaMVP, and the other end
of the Ethernet cable into a Ethernet port of a network hub, router or switch. You can use
10Mbit or 100Mbit router/switches. If you are using your own cables, use Category 5
Ethernet cable for best results.

Note: the MediaMVP needs to be on the same network subnet as the PC where you loaded
the MediaMVP Server application. Therefore, plug the MediaMVP into the same router as
you’ve plugged your PC. If you have multiple routers, with the PC on a different router than
the MediaMVP, the MediaMVP will not load the MediaMVP application.

l Wireless connection
When connecting MediaMVP to your network in wireless mode the only thing you need to make
sure is that the wireless access point you are going to connect to is turned on.

Connecting MediaMVP directly to a PC or laptop:
l Wired connection

If you would like to connect MediaMVP directly to a PC or laptop, you will need a
crossover cable. You cannot use a standard Ethernet cable to directly connect the MediaMVP

toa PC or laptop.

Please see the section entitled “Connecting MediaMVP to a PC or laptop”.
l Wireless connection

In order to connect MediaMVP directly to a PC or laptop wirelessly, you will need to have a
wireless adapter installed on your PC or laptop and configure the operating mode to “Ad-Hoc”
mode.

Please see the section entitled “Connecting MediaMVP to a PC or laptop wirelessly”.

Step 2: Connecting MediaMVP to your TV set

Step 3: Installing the MediaMVP software on your PC

Connecting to a TV set:

Note: Your TV set needs to have A/V input jacks. If your TV only has RF inputs (normally from a
TV antenna), then you will need to use a Video-to-RF modulator, which can be purchased from
RadioShack.

Using the supplied Video cable set, connect one end of the Composite video (yellow RCA jack)
cable to the yellow jack on theMediaMVP and
connect the other end to the Video Input jack on
your TV set.

Connect one end of the Left Audio (white RCA jack)
cable to the white jack on the MediaMVP, and

connect the other end to the Left Audio input on
your TV set.

Connect one end of the Right Audio (red RCA jack)
cable to the red jack on the MediaMVP, and connect

the other end to the Right Audio input on your TV
set.

Note: If your TV set has only one audio input, use just MediaMVPs Left audio cable.

On your TV set:

To use the MediaMVP, you need to select the Video Input on your TV set. Each TV set does this
differently, but many TV sets have a button marked TV/Video . Clicking this button normally
switches from the TV tuner inside your TV set to the Audio/Video inputs being used by MediaMVP.
Some TV sets have a TV/Video button on the remote.

If you cannot find a way to switch to Video Input on your TV set, refer to the TV set manual.

When you have made all your network and TV connections, boot your PC and run the

MediaMVP Setup program from the MediaMVP Installation CD-ROM.

Click the Start button, then Run and then the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive (for example:
D:\), then Setup.EXE

This should take a few minutes and is automatic.
