Multiroom Audio Video Vault

 The MAV2 (Multi-Room Audio Video Vault) is a smart storage solution that has been specifically designed with the CI professional and Hi-Fi retailer in mind.

The MAV2 is a UPnP network storage device with added features and functionality. The Multi-Room Company has tailored the system’s specification and performance based on a wealth of experience and extensive feedback from our customers.

There are a number of excellent streaming audio and video devices available and that number is set to grow. There is, however, one issue that seems to have been neglected by many manufacturers and that is the level of computer literacy on the part of the end-user. With the MAV2, the end-user doesn’t need to be able to use a PC!

The MAV2 can be installed on a local or wide-area network and once installed, the day to day use is as simple as loading a disc into the its optical drive. The MAV2 has the ability to archive CDs, DVDs and Blu- ray Discs and automatically embed ID tagging, metadata and artwork on its RAID configured storage, giving a real time back up of all stored media. The archiving and converting process is completely automated and once it is completed, the MAV2 ejects the disc, ready for the next one.

*NEW* The MAV2r Video Converter converts DVD and Blu-ray titles based on selectable MP4 profiles. The profiles define formats that include files with various quality settings, and formats specific for mobile devices, and Apple TV. It is also possible to add new formats to list of conversion profiles. Titles can be automatically added to the converter when they are copied to the RAID storage through the disc copier, or manually added through the lists in the MAV2 Dashboard.

CDs can be dual ripped so that an mp3 copy is made at the same time as a high quality version. The mp3 is perfect for syncing with portable players such as iPods, smart phones and other portable devices. DVD and Blu-ray playback is supported on any client device that has the appropriate codec support.

The MAV2 contains two hot-swappable 2TB RAID drives (3Tb on request) and is augmented by a separate operating system hard drive, adding to the fit and forget nature of the product.

Powered by an Intel Core chipset,  the MAV2r is available in up to 45Tb RAID in a full rack mount version.
