Important Notes
Thestandard CD-ROM installation does not prompt you to enter your name, company
name, and serial number. Ignore Step 4 on page 3-3 in theIP/TV Viewer User Guide.
The DEMO CD-ROM does not prompt you to enter your name, company name, or
serial number. Instead, the User Information window (Step 5, page 3-5) displays two
radio buttons: Demo and Full.
Select the Demo installation option to begin streaming video quickly. Use this option
in conjunction with the Demonstration installation of the IP/TV Server.
Use the Full installation in conjunction with the Cisco 3400 series video servers or if
IP/TV software is installed on your own computer. The Full installation will not work
with the demonstration of the IP/TV Server.
In order to retain the current Content Manager setting when upgrading from IP/TV
Viewer 2.0 to IP/TV Viewer 3.0, you must edit the setup.ini file to enable the Admin
Mode Install (EnableAdminModeInstall=1) and you must specify the desired Content
Manager in the Guide Server parameter (GuideServer={CM}) before the upgrade.
When IP/TV Viewer is configured for a Content Manager with a program listing of
greaterthan 200 programs and the polling value is set to the default of 10 minutes, the
amount of time repeatedly needed to complete a program listing fetch may cause
synchronizationissues and frame droppage. In order to prevent these symptoms, set the
polling interval underSettings>ContentManagers to 12 hours (720 minutes) or, if
possible, turn polling off.
Ifyou receive the error message Error loading amovie.ocx. The specified module
could not be found whentrying to view the IP/TV Introduction Video, install Active
Movie from the following location on the CD: IPTV\Support\mpfull.exe.
