MediaEdge3 is a networked video distribution and display system that basically consists of one or more servers for video storage and streaming and one or more PC clients for receiving and viewing video. In addition to conventional MPEG1/2/4 standards, MediaEdge3 supports MPEG2-HD, thus enabling HDV (high definition video) distribution.
* MediaEdge3 is not a particular product name; rather, it is a generic name that encompasses various systems and devices used to distribute and play high definition video over networks. For details on hardware and software components, see below.
