Introduction to Control4 Media Player

A key component of the Control4 vision to automate, control, and

provide entertainment throughout the home is the Control4 Media

Player—a device that plays back video ﬁles from the home network.

Using the Control4 Media Player with the Control4 system allows

customers to view their video ﬁles on their TV and eliminates the

need to watch them on their computer. The Control4 system already

allows users to browse cover art and play back their DVD and

Blu-ray™ discs from any Control4 Navigator. With the addition of the

Control4 Media Player, now users also can navigate and play their

video ﬁles from the same user interface.

IMPORTANT! Before you install the device, refer to “Important

Safety Instructions” in this document.

2. Left/Right Audio

Add and Identify the Media Player

to the Project

Note: The Documentation tab in the driver’s Properties page contains

some valuable information about the Player that you should consider

during installation. Refer to this page as needed.

1. Use the Composer Pro software to add and identify the Media

Player to the Control4 system. Refer to the Composer Pro User

Guide for details.

2. When you identify the device in Composer, press the Link LED on

the front of the device to identify it to the system.

Installation Instructions

Before you install the Media Player, ﬁrst determine where you will

place the device. It can be installed in a rack, mounted on the wall, or

placed on a ﬂat surface near the TV or other A/V equipment.

Installing on a ﬂat surface:

1. Place the Media Player on a ﬂat surface or in a rack.

2. Connect the Media Player to the home network.

3. Determine which A/V connections you will use, and connect the

Media Player directly to the TV, Receiver or Video Switch,

Connect Power.

Mounting on a wall:

1. Place the Media Player upside down on a ﬂat surface.

2. Remove the rubber feet from the bottom of the device to expose

the mounting holes.

3. If a ﬂat-screen TV is mounted to the wall, remove the TV from

the wall.

4. Use the template provided (see “Wall Mount Template” on the

next page) to mark on the wall where the wall anchors are to be

installed for the Media Player.

Note: We recommend that the Media Player be mounted using

wall anchors to ensure that it is not inadvertently pulled from the

wall.

5. Install four (4) wall anchors to the wall directly behind the ﬂat-

screen TV. (Mount the Media Player on the side closest to the AV

connections. See the next step.)

6. Attach the Media Player to the wall anchors.

7. Connect the Media Player to the home network.

8. Determine which A/V connections you will use, and connect the

Media Player directly to the TV, Receiver or Video Switch,

Connect Power.

9. Mount the TV to the wall.

Note: You can use the Composer Pro software to step through the

connection process before or after the physical connections are

completed.

Tips:

For audio, you have three (3) options:

1. Audio and Video are both available through the HDMI connector.

2. S/PDIF. If the TV or Receiver supports this connector, use this

one.

3. Left/Right audio. Note: DTS audio is available only via HDMI or

S/PDIF.

For video:

Connect to the TV, Receiver or Video Switch. Note: If you connect

HDMI, all other video ports will be disabled.

Scan the Media in Composer

Note: A network-attached storage drive must be conﬁgured to work

in your project and showing online in Composer.

1. Use the Composer software (Media Edition, Home Edition, or the

Media view in the Professional Edition) to identify videos that

you want the Media Player to be able to play. You can add videos

manually, or Composer can scan network-attached storage

locations to add video ﬁles automatically.

2. In Composer, click the Media view.

3. Select the network-attached storage drive where the videos are

located, and then click the Scan or New button. Scan will auto-

matically identify some types of video ﬁles (normally ISO and

IFO/VOBS ﬁles in a videoTS folder). Other types of video ﬁles

can be added using the New button. This action automatically

updates the Navigators and provides cover art (if available) for

easy video recognition.

4. For videos that haven’t been identiﬁed in the scan process, use

the New function to add the videos manually.

Additional details for advanced functions, such as adding your own

cover art, are available in the Composer Pro User Guide.

IMPORTANT! Only use the power supply included in this box.

Note: Peel o the protective ﬁlm from the front of the device.
