SMD 101 • Setup Guide
The Extron SMD 101 decodes video or graphics streams from an IP network,
plays back internal video and audio files, and plays Video On Demand files from network shares at their original resolution or
scaled up or down to any common SD, HD, or graphics resolution up to 1900x1200 (WUXGA). The SMD 101 can be deployed in
live event streaming and high level conferencing for specialized projects.
Mount the SMD 101
Before connecting the SMD 101, turn off all devices that will

SMD 101 • Setup Guide (Continued) Play a Stream: NOTE: The SMD 101 must be connected to a LAN to locate and play streams. Clips or streams stored in internal memory can be played without the need for a network connection. 1. In the Browser panel, select the Streams tab (see figure 5). 2. Click on an available stream to select it for decoding (see the SMD 101 User Guide for additional ways to specify or select streams). 3. Click on and drag the stream from the Streams browser panel and drop it

Operation With Extron SME 100 Encoders For SME 100 stream discovery in the SMD 101 streams browser (see figure 5 on page 4), the SME 100 must have both Stream Control and SAP Control enabled to enable SAP announcements. The SME 100 settings are shown below. From the SME 100 default web page (see the SME 100 User Guide), select the Encoder Configuration link, then Encoder Settings to open the configuration dialog shown in figure 6 below.

SMD 101 • Setup Guide (Continued) Connecting to Streams Without SAP Announcements For a source that is not configured for SAP announcements (such as IP cameras), the RTSP (pull) stream URI is entered directly in the Source: field of the SMD 101 player controls. The URI prefix (udp in the example below) corresponds to the streaming method. UDP or RTP Connections To connect the SMD 101 to a stream using the destination port of the encoder, use the following template: udp://@: F
