About XD20 Media Player
The XD20 Media Player is the latest audio/video playback system. It has been engineered to deliver eight
channels of digital surround sound (plus a narration channel). It is a full-featured media solution with pre-
show programming and networking capabilities.
Options that are enabled via licensing include:
•
Soundtrack Playback (including playing 5.1 audio to timecode)
•
HD Video
•
CSS Cinema Subtitling System (subtitling, captions, and audio description).
A second hard drive (RAID) may optionally be installed into the XD20 chassis.
The XD20 Media Player has a large-capacity internal hard drive, which can store approximately 30 full-
length feature soundtracks. XD20 connects directly or via network to an external DVD drive unit (see
Appendix M
).
To get the most out of your XD20, we suggest that you review this manual and keep it available during
system installation and initial operation.
