Overview

The Antex Media Director product line is a series of intelligent digital business appliances designed to manage the delivery, storage and processing of data, audio, and video. The Media Director can playback and record audio and video, and also process the delivery of real-time broadcast or internet stream.

The Antex Media Director is a self-sufficient, intelligent digital appliance with 20-160GB of local storage, and embedded asset management system with auto-refresh capability. This means that you won't be relying on the bandwidth of a stream for the quality of your performance. Connect to a LAN, broadband, or even a modem: the final result is the same!
