Overview Overview
The HDMA-4000 is a device that plays HD content stored on its internal HDD or
on a network. Contents can easily be updated from a network or a memory card.
Scheduled playback and remote serial control are also supported. By using a
memory drive instead of the internal HDD, a stable playback environment with no
moving parts is available.
