Impressive Image Quality, Immersive Sound
The Workhorse of Video Players

The BD-MP1MKII is a robust, single-rackspace multi-media video player for professional applications like permanent installation in the contractor market and touring.

Building on the success of the Tascam BD-01U and BD-MP1, this high-definition playback device can be controlled via LAN, RS-232C and a wireless remote control, making it an ideal component of integrated media systems and a reliable video player for commercial AV, education, house of worship, boardroom and other high-stress installs or live touring.

Playback From a Variety of Media Types

The versatile BD-MP1MKII can automatically play back content in a wide range of file formats via any of the three front-panel media input slots, including Blu-ray, DVD, CD, USB Flash Memory and SD card. Offering single-source playback for a wide range of media and file formats, the BD-MP1MKII eliminates the need for discrete audio/video playback devices in an installation. Its extensive range of file formats includes

  • video formats like MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4 AVC, VC-1, AVCHD and WMV,
  • image formats like JPEG, GIF and PNG as well as
  • audio formats like LPCM, MP3, AAC and WMA.

Dual USB Memory Ports

Two USB memory ports, one on the front panel and one on the back panel, allow fixed or interchangeable access to USB memory data for playback versatility.

Power-on Play and Repeat Mode

The unique Power-on Play feature allows the BD-MP1MKII to start playing desired content immediately on power-up, without having to engage the Play feature first. With Repeat Mode activated, content will automatically start, loop and play continuously until power is turned off.

Panel Lock for Secure Operation

Panel lock, IR and tray lock functions prevent accidental or user-error operation or alteration of pre-set controls in commercial environments, helping ensure consistent and reliable performance in any installation.

Elegant Power-Up Display Sequence

The monitor display can be set to show a black screen during start up rather than the manufacturer’s screen with menu items, creating an elegant and non-distracting visual start-up environment each time the system is turned on.

HDMI Output for Projectors and Screens

A standard HDMI output provides easy, reliable plug-and-play connection to any HDMI-compatible monitor display, projector or television. This output supports HDMI CEC which allows the connected display to be switched on/off in correct order.

Balanced and Unbalanced Outputs

Highlighting its appeal to commercial installation environments, the BD-MP1MKII offers professional-grade XLR balanced stereo analogue outputs as well as RCA unbalanced stereo outputs for versatility in audio routing, connection and setup.

Coaxial Digital Audio Output

The BD-MP1MKII provides support for professional-grade digital audio output formats including Dolby, DTS, and others via its rear-panel coaxial output. Playback of two-channel linear PCM is also supported.

7.1 Surround Sound System

For immersive and full, rich audio playback in any commercial installation, separate 7.1 Surround Sound outputs are provided. Use these outputs to feed an appropriate Surround amplifier or separate power amplifiers for larger locations.

External Remote Control via LAN and RS-232C

The BD-MP1MKII provides support for professional-grade digital audio output formats including Dolby, DTS, and others via its rear-panel coaxial output. Playback of two-channel linear PCM is also supported.

IR Remote Control & Fully Accessible Control Panel

The included IR remote control allows most of the functions and menus to be operated with ease.

Control and operation of the BD-MP1MKII’s Stop, Play, Pause and Fast Forward functions as well as navigation of the menu is made possible by easily accessible front-panel control buttons which can be locked as desired to avoid inadvertent operation by unauthorised persons.
