Displays & Mounting

Master Video · 05/20/2021 ·

The First TV Display Mounting System

• DYK - The First Commercial TV Displays and Mounting Systems were developed in the early 1950s to accommodate large, heavy, and bulky Cathode-Ray Tube Televisions.

Why Displays & Mounting?

Did You Know; The First Commercial Television Display Mounts were launched in the USA at the beginning of the 1950s. The early Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) televisions of the time were heavy and bulky, so the first TV lifts and brackets required a large amount of space for installation.

Master Video Systems was at the forefront of early TV technology, with some of the very first Color CRT Commercial Display Installations in America.

By the 1970s, televisions became lighter which allowed the use of ceiling and wall-mounted brackets. Around the year 2000, Flat Panel Displays entered the scene, making custom mounting solutions feasible.

MVS First Color Television

Today, with ever-changing technology and lighter and flatter LED screens, display mounting systems can now be configured to almost any size and specification, from single TVs to multi-screen displays, Video Boards, Digital Signage, and more.

Enhance the Patient/Guest Viewing Experience to Differentiate Services and Improve Satisfaction Ratings.

Consumer TVs vs. Commercial Displays

Consumer Televisions and Commercial Display Screens may look the same, but they serve different functions. Consumer televisions are considered a complete system, with standard components like a tuner and speakers. Whereas, a Commercial Display may not use a tuner or speakers, such as in Digital Signage applications.

The quality of the components and build of Commercial Displays needs to be significantly greater than standard Consumer TVs, due to hours of operation and operating environments. Commercial Displays also have ‘Anti-Burn Technology to avoid ‘Screen Burn’ issues that Consumer TVs experience when running up to 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Consumer TVs

• Limited warranties that can be voided if used Commercially.

• Not compatible with Content Management Systems (CMS).

• No Digital Rights Management (DRM) encryption protection.

• No ability to lock-out viewers from altering the TV settings.

Commercial TVs

• Warranty includes coverage in Commercial environments.

• Compatible with CMS solutions and centralized management.

• DRM technology ensures secure content everywhere.

• Lockable settings prevent menu and volume tampering.

Master Video Triple Play 1953

• DYK - The First Master Video Brochure was in 1953 and featured the all-new “Triple Play,” in conjunction with CBS, with Television, Radio, and Background Music/PA System.

Why Master Video Triple Play?

Did You Know; The first Master Video Systems (MVS) brochure in 1953, featured the all-new “Triple Play,” in conjunction with CBS, with a television/radio in-room system for the hotel industry.
