    Posted by John McHaleLONG BEACH, Calif. 14 Sept. 2010. China Eastern has selected the Rockwell Collins high-definition (HD) dPAVES 737 Boeing Sky Interior in-flight entertainment (IFE) solution for 30 Boeing 737NG airplanes. Deliveries are expected to begin in 2011. The Rockwell Collins' dPAVES 737 Boeing Sky Interior option includes: aretractable 12 inch 16:9 LCD HD-ready displays; enhanced touch screen flight attendant entertainment control panel (ECP); and USB ports located next to the ECP for easier content loading. At the core of the dPAVES-HD system is the high definition media server (HDMS) offering 160 gigabytes of solid state storage capability for audio and video content, boarding music, and integrated pre-recorded announcements (PRAM) together and embedded Airshow 3D Moving Map functionality -- all in a single four modular component unit box. The large capacity of the HDMS stores entertainment content for multiple play periods, and the server automatically selects the new content when the new play period starts. Additionally, non-encrypted content can be handled by airlines independent of the Rockwell Collins content management system, giving airlines the flexibility to replace content locally.
