Explanation:
Cisco Cast is a Cisco Digital Media Management (DMM) module that is used to provide an onscreen program
guide for IP television (IPTV) and Video on Demand (VoD) content on Cisco Digital Media Players (DMPs).
Cisco DMM is an application that can manage, schedule, and publish digital media to displays. Cisco DMM
consists of the following modules:
Cisco Digital Signs
Cisco Show and Share
Cisco Live Event – Cisco Cast
Cisco Digital Signs is used to categorize and manage Cisco DMPs. Each display can be controlled remotely
and programmed to display whatever content is desired. Managers can create screen layouts that divide the
screen into regions in which programmable content can be displayed.
Cisco Show and Share is an application that provides a secure community for video sharing and collaboration.
User management and authentication are provided by Microsoft Active Directory, Lightweight Directory AccessProtocol (LDAP), or an embedded DMM database. Each publisher can define which users can watch their
video content. Searchable text transcripts can be added to each video so that media can be easily located.
Related videos can be associated so that viewers can view additional relevant material. Publishers can also
allow viewers to comment, rate, and tag their videos.
Cisco Live Event enables Show and Share publishers to add synchronized graphics to their audio and video
streams. Producers of live streaming events can publish poll questions to webcast viewers and allow those
viewers to submit text-based questions to the presenters. Streamed events can be saved as a VoD session for
subsequent viewing.
Cisco Media Experience Engine (MXE) is not a module of Cisco DMM. Cisco MXE is an appliance that can
convert and adapt media formats as well as perform media postproduction. Media can be converted from and
to many different formats for consumption on a wide variety of devices. Various formats are supported, from
standard definition (SD) to high definition (HD). Media postproduction involves adding professional-looking
features to media files, including bumpers, trailers, fades, transitions, animations, subtitles, captions, and other
overlay graphics. Cisco Pulse Video Analytics, which is a component of MXE, can also automatically tag and
index media files so that you can search videos that include a particular spoken phrase or word. MXE
integrates with Cisco TelePresence Content Server (TCS) and Cisco Show and Share.Cisco: Cisco Digital Media Manager
