Built around your venue
Video Distribution and Control Together
Your Sources. Your Screens. Your Layout. Whether your venue has 10 TVs or 200, Cinemar customizes your AV Matrix Distribution & Control system for your layout, HDMI sources, screens, and viewing areas. From your venue-specific touchscreen floor plan, select any TV and route available HDMI sources to it.
Flexible video routing with familiar touchscreen control.
Cinemar combines flexible HDMI source-to-TV routing with centralized touchscreen control. Select which available source appears on each TV or group of TVs. We tailor the number of HDMI sources and TVs to your venue. HDMI video distribution does not guarantee remote-control integration with every third-party source.

Professional video hardware
Professional Multi-Channel HDMI Encoding
Available in 4, 8, and 16-Channel Rack-Mountable Configurations
16-Channel HDMI Encoder shown. Also available in 4 and 8-channel configurations.
Cinemar's professional HDMI encoders are available in 4, 8, and 16-channel configurations, allowing us to tailor the system to your venue's specific needs. These rack-mountable units convert multiple HDMI sources for distribution over Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 network cabling, providing a clean, organized, and scalable solution for sports bars, restaurants, and other commercial venues.
Flexible video wiring
HDMI Video Distribution Over Cat5, Cat5e & Cat6
Cinemar's AV Matrix Distribution & Control system carries HDMI video over Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 twisted-pair network cabling, reducing the need for long HDMI runs.
Route DirecTV receivers, cable boxes, streaming devices, computers and other HDMI sources to TVs throughout your venue from one touchscreen.
Existing cable suitability and required distribution equipment depend on the installation. HDMI video compatibility does not guarantee remote-control integration for every source.
Choose the Right System
You may not need a new distribution system if your existing DirecTV wiring already works.
DirecTV Control
If DirecTV receivers are already connected to their respective TVs, our lower-cost DirecTV control system may be all you need.
