Global

The Global page is used to configure global parameters which apply to all programs. These
settings are usually determined by the network configuration.
Transmitter Mode In this mode a transmitter pushes the stream to multiple destinations. It
is a constant push and there is no client "request" for the stream.
Server Mode In this mode, a served program does not become active on the network
until requested by a decoder client like StreamPlayer or QuickTime.
