Updating Courtroom AV
equipment - new requirements to play videos
The Commission is in the process of replacing the
televisions in our courtrooms with flat-screen
televisions. We will 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 now 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 then display your
computer on the flat-screen television 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 a mechanism to transmit your computer display to
the television. Files on a USB drive will need to 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 the
scheduled install dates for the Peerless system by
location is as follows:
Peerless system available

videos) Abingdon – January 26, 2018 Baltimore –
