What is "pmx"

PMX can refer to:

• Pacific Media Expo, a multi-genre convention held since 2004 in California.
• PMX (technology) to generate local weather information
• Microsoft Premium Mobile Experiences team, responsible for the KIN phones
• PMX-1000, an computer system-on-a-chip
• A very compact notation for typesetting music; also the preprocessor which expands that notation to MusiXTeX code.

PMX refers to the technology developed by Pelmorex to generate local weather information on The Weather Network. PMX consists of computers, typically installed at a cable headend, that takes data fed to it (the video feed of The Weather Network, forecast information, and triggers to run said forecasts) and packages it for broadcast. Unlike the Weather Star systems, it does not generate full graphical or video segments, rather the information is super-imposed over the main video feed.
