DMPDM has two main purposes. With it, you can:
•
Configure one DMP during its initial setup.
•
Manage one DMP and one presentation system in isolation. (Or, when you use signal splitters or
daisy chaining, your DMP can deliver media to multiple presentation systems that are close to it — as
would be the case with a video wall.)

Note
StadiumVision deployments should avoid using DMPDM, except to check the firmware’s “build date” or
release version number. For other tasks, please use the management dashboard software and documentation that
came with your StadiumVision purchase.

Tip
A software user guide for DMPDM is available on Cisco.com. See
TVzilla
A Cisco-customized web browser is sometimes preinstalled on DMPs. We call this browser TVzilla.
Note
Does your DMP model run TVzilla in this release? Some might not. See
TVzilla uses code from the open source Mozilla project, and supports JavaScript. TVzilla supports the
following file types.

A technique called interleaved RTP makes it possible for some centrally managed DMPs to play
delay-insensitive unicast MPEG streams through RTSP connections. A streaming server can then
transmit this “hinted” video to DMPs on demand. The key advantages of interleaved RTP are that data
loss is impossible inside the hinted program stream, and yet synchronization of audio to video never
suffers, even in high-definition.

Cisco Hinter is software to prepare and stage MPEG files for interleaved RTP transmission through the
