Not just another media server—A new standard in Media DeliveryToday, there’s a flood of sources for online music and video content. The problem is that they’re all fragmented, each with its own catalog of titles in a slew of differentmedia formats requiring special software applications, hardware boxes, and userinterfaces. To get access to everything that’s available, you have to search eachsource independently through its own proprietary interface until that movie, song or file is found.

Crestron Intermedia Delivery is the new paradigm for managing media. The ADMSconsolidates and streamlines home and online source information, saving you countless minutes when seeking a music file, new blockbuster release, video clip or online TV episode. The ADMS has a beautiful, intuitive menu that guides you along the way, displaying art and data for music and movies, with multiple ways to find the precise content you want – quickly and easily.

The ADMS brings digital media together into one attractive solution, incorporating an audiophile-grade multimedia server, Blu-ray Disc-compatible DVD player, Webbrowser and streaming media player. With ADMS, Crestron combined the user interface and Internet connectivity, plus the download, storage, and playback capabilities of numerous disparate products into a unified package that’s moresecure, reliable, fun to use and simpler to operate.

Intrigued? Let’s get into some of the features that make the ADMS with IntermediaDelivery the most exciting, interactive home entertainment Crestron has ever designed.

ADMS Intermedia Delivery SystemTM

For example, typing the name of your favorite actor (using the optional wireless keyboard or touchpanel) generates a lineup of cover art from all the movies in which they’ve appeared. Jog through the alphabetized images, checking out plotsummaries, directors or casts if you’d like. Edit movie info for future reference. With a few button touches, you’re all set for the show. In any event, finding a medianeedle in a haystack of entertainment sources just got easy!

On Demand and On HandTired of making trips to the video store, or waiting for your DVDs to arrive in the mail?With Video On Demand onboard, the ADMS brings the largest selection of movies forrent or purchase right to your HD display. Complete online catalogs are updated daily,providing immediate access to new releases. Since the ADMS includes a secure, custom browser, other movie portals are your Netflix subscription and Hulu.com.

In addition to online downloads, adding the optional ADC-200BR 200-disc Blu-rayChanger to the ADMS seamlessly integrates your entire collection of DVDs and high-definition Blu-ray Discs into the media library. Up to five changers may be linked, providing ready access to an incredible 1,000 discs! Since they’re not “ripped” to the hard drive, copyrighted content can be stored and played legally for your personal enjoyment.

Music Access to the MaxImagine having your entire music collection in one spot, and being able to find anyplaylist, album or track within seconds. Imagine album art and metadata beautifullygracing the room while the music plays. Imagine a bounty of album, artist and trackcommands at your fingertips as you smilingly browse, manage, preview and play yourselections du jour. Welcome to a new world of music pleasure, courtesy of the ADMS.

The most popular audio formats, including iTunes Plus and MP3, are easily importedfrom your networked PC, Mac or laptop using the Media Transport Wizard to becomepart of your master library. Listeners in the home theater and two other rooms can then make their own music choices independently via a Crestron remote or touchscreen.

Multi-purpose Blu-ray DiscTM Player/Optical DriveNo need for a separate Blu-ray or DVD player! The ADMS includes a front-loaded optical disc drive that supports Blu-ray Discs and all types of DVDs, including those you’ve burned yourself. Sit back and enjoy in maximum-impact HD, taking full advantage of the ADMS’ embedded video enhancement technology, which automatically upscales and adjusts standard-definition content. The ADMS displaysmetadata such as movie synopses and cast information. HDMI and S/PDIF audio I/Os ensure that the movie will sound as great as it looks!

On the music side, using the same optical drive, CDs are quickly imported with aselectable audio compression level, including Uncompressed for the highest quality.Upon access, the ADMS displays the cover art, artist, title and tracks. The ADMSultra-quiet design means there’s no worries about having it in your listening area,even during the softest musical passages.

HDMITM Theater AV OutputHDMI is the industry standard for high-performance digital video and audio connectivity. The ADMS features an HDMI output carrying 1080p HD video anduncompressed 7.1 surround sound, perfect for integration into a high-performanceCrestron home theater. HDCP is fully implemented to ensure compliance with a complete range of digital video displays and projectors. In addition to HDMI, there are 5.1 capable S/PDIF audio and 7.1 analog audio and HD component video outputs.

HDCP ReadyAs the move to digital takes hold, an accelerating number of movie studios are using HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) to protect their DVDs andBlu-ray Discs against unauthorized copying. Viewing the HDCP encrypted content in its full HD format requires the source device to “authenticate” each display andsignal processor in the system through an HDMI connection, before delivering an output signal. The ADMS’ HDCP support ensures successful playback, regardless of HDMI content.

It employs a leading-edge graphics platform with excellent scaling and videopost-processing. Streaming TV never looked so good!

Protected, Boundless Media Storage The ADMS is designed to be more secure and reliable than any other home mediaserver solution. As you can imagine, storing a large collection of HD video and lossless audio requires a lot of disc space. The ADMS’ standard 1 terabyte (1,000gigabytes) of storage is kept safe using RAID 1 technology, utilizing dual redundanthard drives to maintain two copies of your data for extreme reliability. Standardcapacity is approximately 45,000 songs (WMA Lossless format), or over 400 standard-definition movies. So depending on your library, you may like to increase capacity.

Expanding media storage is easy with the addition of the CEN-NAS-4TB 4 terabyteNetwork Attached Storage appliance. It comes pre-configured for the ADMS and features four hot-swappable 1TB hard drives with RAID 5 protection, all in a singlerack space. It can store about 1,500 standard-definition movies or 150,000 songs!The ADMS seamlessly extends storage across any number of Network AttachedStorage units that are added to your system, and also provides direct connection of external USB and 1394 drives for additional flexibility.

Multi-Format File SupportThe ADMS supports a wide range of compressed, lossless, and streaming media formats, including Windows Media, Apple QuickTime, Adobe Flash and MPEG-1, -2 and -4.

Other files can be imported via the built-in MMC card slot (SD/SDHCcompatible) or USB flash drive.

Easy Setup, Interaction and ControlAs a Crestron system, the ADMS provides streamlined setup from the front panel,including video resolution, audio outputs, front panel appearance and networkingmode. No extra equipment is needed – just power and an Ethernet connection. Thefront panel’s selector knob, clean buttons and adjustably-backlit LCD display evenprovide the means to view, select and control playback of audio files stored in theADMS’ media library.

Browsing through albums and tracks, importing CDs, and organizing a complete musicand video library are fun and easy using the onscreen user menu. Displayed on your HD video display, the beautiful graphical interface affords intuitive search and playbackof all your digital media content.

Every ADMS installation is driven by a Crestron control system. Touchpanels, remotes,keypads, and computers can be used to control the ADMS from all over your home.From any touchpanel, you can view your entire media collection (with album cover art!)and control every function of the ADMS as it is integrated with the rest of your system.Complete programming is simplified using Crestron SystemBuilderTM software.

Home theater automation makes the experience ultra-convenient and impressivelymodern. The movie begins, and automatically the lights dim, the shades descend andthe room temperature adjusts. Your Crestron dealer can set this up and integrate itwith whole-house control and security.

Designed-in Performance, Reliability & Support The ADMS was engineered from top to bottom for high performance, cool-runningoperation and the smallest possible “acoustic footprint.” Extensive volumetric andheat generation testing produced an innovative enclosure design that runs cool andquiet so you can put it where it’s accessible to the user.

The Microsoft Vista Ultimate operating system was selected for its video pipeline optimizations and is partitioned to further protect your media library. Security updates for the OS will be fully tested and then hosted by Crestron.

The internal Crestron WatchdogTM constantly monitors the status of the ADMS, automatically resetting the system in the event of an error. Remote access (via VNC server) allows Crestron customer support or dealer to assess most errors andrestore proper functionality without ever going onsite – and without losing any data.

The Bottom LineThe ADMS Intermedia Delivery System sets a new standard in home entertainment,reinventing the way we think about and experience media. Why is it “revolutionary”?Because it changes behavior. It moves people away from their computer screens to take fuller advantage of their HD displays. It saves precious leisure time by greatlystreamlining the time to find and play media. It makes the audio-visual world friendlier.The ADMS makes life more fun!
