June 16, 2008

CodexNovus, the leader in stand-alone and networked high definition media server and media player products, introduces the CodexNovus Peer-to-Peer Network, a fully expandable multimedia system for storing and playing entire digital media libraries. Allowing for flexible growth of multimedia libraries while eliminating the need for multiple online copies of media, the versatile CodexNovus Peer-to-Peer Network delivers multimedia, including stunning 1080p and beyond High Definition video and brilliant 5.1 and 7.1 multi-channel audio, simultaneously via a broadband Gigabit Ethernet connection to multiple clients in a whole house or business entertainment system. Featuring CodexNovus’ proprietary peer-to-peer architecture support, the fully-expandable CodexNovus Peer-to-Peer Network allows nearly limitless combinations of CodexNovus’ DMS-6000 Digital Media Servers, award-winning DML (Digital Media Library) Player/Servers and Client (DML-Zero) Players to be configured into an extensive, robust network for a complete multimedia system. No more one-movie-at-a-time from the library, a single 6TB, RAID5-configured DMS-6000 through its two Gigabit ports delivers up to 120MBps of data to simultaneously deliver up to eight 1080p video streams, 12 Standard Definition video streams, 16 High Definition audio streams or 48 MP3 audio streams to a network hundreds of CodexNovus Client Players and Player/Servers. If local storage is preferred multiple CodexNovus DML Digital Media Player/Servers can be networked throughout the home or business, without a central server. Although DML-Zero Client Players provide no local storage, they are fully capable of drawing content from either a DMS central server or a storage-equipped DML Player/Server in the network. Now, all the children’s favorite cartoons, TV programs, and songs can be viewed and stored in their rooms while mom and dad enjoy content suited for mature audiences in their bedroom. While all network-based multimedia can be shared throughout the system, user-defined preferences can be set to restrict certain content from being accessed by any number of units—meaning parents can manage what is viewed by their children. All CodexNovus award-winning DML Series Digital Media Player/Servers and Digital Media Players, including the DML-4000, DML-1600, DML-1000, DML-400 Player/Servers and DML-Zero Client Player, are built around powerful, proprietary HDcodex software architecture. Eliminate the time and frustration of searching through your media collection, HDcodex empowers users by giving them the ability to consolidate, catalog and organize their video, music and picture media libraries using an interface that is so elegant and simple that everyone in the family will feel comfortable using it. Browse all stored media, music, movies or images in whatever the format or network location, easily and uniformly through the HDcodex on-screen user interface. Additionally, CodexNovus’ HDcodex enhances the experience of browsing through the stored media collection by providing detailed metadata—artist, album, genre, and style information—on thousands of albums and movies.
