Updating courtroom
Audio/Visual equipment—new requirements to play videos
The Commission is in the process of replacing current
televisions in our courtrooms with modern flat-screen
televisions. We are also be replacing the DVD/VCR
players with Peerless-AV PeerAir HDS300 Pro Wireless AV
Multi-Display Systems. This new technology will allow
the Commission to better adapt to changing technology
and video formats.
All media will be
played from your laptop computer. You will
connect your computer to the Peerless system via either
HDMI or VGA cable and the Peerless system will display
your computer on the flat-screen for viewing. A laptop
with software to play your video(s) is required for the
videos to be played on the courtroom television. The
Peerless system does not contain a “player;” it is
simply transmits your computer display to the
television; for example, video files on a USB drive will
be plugged into your computer to be played. Please make
sure any files you intend to show will play correctly on
your computer. HDMI and VGA cables, as well as
Thunderbolt Mini Display Port DP convertors for Apple
laptops, will be provided by the Commission.
We
are rolling out this new technology in phases and web
notices will post as equipment is replaced in each site.
As of January 26, 2018, the equipment at each site is as
follows:
Peerless system (connect your laptop to
the courtroom television to play videos) - Abingdon
DVD/VCR (videos must be on DVD or VHS tape to play
on the courtroom television) - Baltimore, Beltsville.
Cambridge, Frederick, LaPlata
