Cisco Digital Media System (Cisco DMS) is a family of products and technologies, including the ones that this guide describes.

A Digital Media Player (DMP) is a compact, solid state, addressable network device that delivers digital signage content and enterprise TV content to a DMP display, which is any directly attached television screen or other kind of monitor or projector that shows media to an audience. The display might be analog or digital and might be standard-definition or high-definition.

Digital Media Player Device Manager (DMPDM) is a web-based graphical user interface to configure one DMP during its initial setup, to manage one DMP in isolation, and to deliver your media to one DMP display. DMPDM is served from the DMP that it manages.

System administrators, content managers, and graphic designers use a Digital Media Manager (DMM) software module called DMM-DSMto centrally manage their network of DMP devices, organize and bind assets together for signage, design layouts, and deliver media to DMP displays. Features of the separately licensed DMM-ETVsoftware module help you to deliver VoDs and live television broadcasts over IP networks, configure an on-screen electronic program guide (EPG), manage subscriptions to EPG data provider services, and program the remote control for DMPs.
