Take a hip new San
Francisco restaurant, mix in a love for Colorado landscapes, add a dash of high definition
video and garnish with some eye-popping flat panels. What you have is a recipe
for a stunning digital signage display that’s turning heads and helping to make
the Medicine Eat Station the talk of the town.
While the restaurant features vegetarian
cuisine with an interesting Japanese influence, it also serves up a collection
of exquisite 720P high definition footage from a private ranch in Colorado and additional shots from Utah on four vertically oriented –or
portrait- plasma displays lined up side by side to give patrons a true sense of
the West. 
It’s easy to get lost in the ambience at
the Medicine Eat Station, but it wasn’t simple creating that experience. Splitting
an HD image into four pieces, rotating them 90 degrees and controlling when
they playback isn’t a typical digital signage requirement.
The Keywest Technology MediaXtreme is the
linchpin upon which the Medicine Eat Station digital signage system hangs. It
offers all of the playback, scheduling and control capabilities of the
company’s popular single-channel MediaXtreme controller –except it does that for
each of four independent channels, or streams, of video. With the MediaXtreme, the
restaurant can playback a single HDV (high definition video) source as a
Windows Media HD file and break it up into four separate pieces –one each for
four portrait oriented plasma monitors.
Multiple channels from a single
controller offer the restaurant convenience and savings. Rather than having to
buy four individual controllers and coordinate playback from each, the MediaXtreme
provides a convenient way to schedule and playback several channels of MPEG
video from the same unit.
