Q: Does RSS feed from a text file?

Q: Is the RSS feed a lower crawl? Horizontal?
A: RSS feeds can be applied as a crawl at the top or bottom of your display.

Q: Is there a limit to the number of units that can be tethered by the scheduler?
A: We have networked 12 units in a tradeshow application. However, each MP-1000 has its own settings which can still be configured independently.

Q: Can we evaluate the MP-1000?
A: We can arrange to have an evaluation unit sent to you to test it for two weeks. Please contact us for details.

A: Yes, they can, time can be adjusted for daylight saving, time zones, restart time, device on and off times.

Q: What is the Ethernet port speed?
A: 10/ 100Mbps

Q: Can I add a larger CompactFlash card for increased storage capacity?
A: Yes. The unit supports CompactFlash card capacities up to 16GB. The native file system for the MP-1000 is FAT32. The CompactFlash card should be formatted as FAT32 to maintain the best performance.

Q: Does the MP-1000 have a USB port?
A: No, the only way to insert content is via the internal Ethernet port or directly to the Compact Flash card.

Q: Is the server included with the MP-1000?
A: There are two types of "servers" involved with the MP-1000. The one that comes included with the MP-1000 is the CAT management software, which is a program that is typically used for manual or "one-off" updates and runs on any Windows-based computer; it creates the playlists and transfers content to the MP-1000. The other is a standard web server which houses content that the MP-1000 can download automatically on its own (via FTP).

Q: Will the MP-1000 play Windows Media files?
A: No, the unit can only play MPEG and AVI video files, JPG images and MP3 audio files.

Q: Can multiple MP-1000s be updated at once?
A: Yes, if using the included CAT management software; you will need a network hub to connect multiple MP-1000s at once. If using an FTP server, you just need a server with the bandwidth capacity to serve all your MP-1000s at once.

Q: Can the MP-1000 download content while it's playing?
A: No, updates must be scheduled during "off" hours.

Q: Does the MP-1000 always have to be connected?
A: No, the unit only needs to connect if there is new content for it to download. Otherwise, it will run within a local network or it will just play content which was already stored on its compact flash card.

With its support for RSS, the MP-1000 can also display any text you provide in a scrolling marquee, with customizable colors and opacity. The MP-1000 also supports the more popular media formats, such as JPEG (for slideshows), MPEG 1, 2 and 4, AVI and DIVX movie files and MP3 and WAV sound files.
