Metro Health builds video-over-IP network

Nice article that appeared in the November/December 2008 issue of AV Technology Magazine, reprinted by Visionary Solutions, Inc. – the vendor of the 57 AVN-220 video encoding blades that we use: Just what the doctor ordered

Since opening the doors to a brand new 208 bed facility just over a year ago, Metro Health has been receiving high marks for patient satisfaction, not just for its cutting edge health care technology but for its innovative IP-based patient education and entertainment system that goes above and beyond the norm.

It is a pretty cool solution since it’s all IP-based, and most of it is available to PC users right at their desks using the VLC media player client to join the multi-cast streams of the different TV channels.
