Filter

Filters are provided to refine the list of streams viewed in the browser. There are three filters with subfilters to narrow the list of streams. The default choice for each filter is All.

Source — Limits the browser to streams identified by their source device or location. The drop-down list is populated with SAP source identification data. Limiting choices are Extron or Other.

NOTE: A stream listed under Extron is defined as a member of the Extron group by the SAP/SDP message. If the SAP/SDP message does not indicate Extron group membership, it is listed in Other.

Protocol — Limits the browser to streams identified by their transport protocol (UDP or RTP). The list is dynamic, populated from SAP transport protocol data as the streams are identified.

Addressing — Limits the browser list to streams identified as unicast or as multicast.

NOTE: Unicast streams can only be played if the connection (destination) address is set correctly at the decoder.

Load

Loads the selected stream for playing.

Browser Panel - Files

The Files tab opens a list of available clips and playlists in the file system including internal storage (up to 175 MB for user content) and shared network folders (when mounted). Each file type (audio, image, video, system, and playlist) has a different icon to distinguish it.
