Function

Description

 

 

 

 

Define FTP User Password

ETV Portal Server is defaulted for “anonymous” FTP access,

 

 

which is configured in Windows IIS Default FTP Site. If a

 

 

more secure FTP access is desired, the Password can be

 

 

changed in IIS (please reference the Windows Server

 

 

documentation for instructions on how to change the FTP

 

 

User Name). The same Password should be entered here.

 

 

 

 

Define a Record Duration

Applies to the on-demand Record pushbutton only (not to

 

 

scheduled recording). Defines the maximum duration (default

 

 

120 minutes) allowed for a continuous recording. Maximum

 

 

record duration limited only by size of hard drive.

 

 

 

 

Change Portal Server Title

Changes the text that is displayed on the upper left hand

 

 

corner of the Portal Server User Interface.

 

 

 

 

Change Announcement

Changing these from the defaults is highly discouraged and should

 

Addresses

only be done if advised by a VBrick technician or Network

 

 

Administrator. Changes the multicast address on which

 

 

Announcements (SAPs) are received. By default all VBrick

 

 

devices are set to the same addresses and ports as the defaults

 

 

in ETV Portal Server. These have to match on all devices for

 

 

proper functionality.

 

 

 

 

Change Announcement

Filters SAP announcements so that only the specified IP

 

Filter

addresses are shown in ETV Portal Server. Wildcards are

 

 

allowed. For example 255.*.*.* displays only those addresses

 

 

in the range 255.0.0.0 – 255.255.255.255.

 

 

 

 

Assign Multicast Address

Defines the current multicast IP address range and port

 

Range

range. The default multicast IP range is 225.1.1.0 –

 

 

239.128.255.255. The default port range is 1040 – 65534.

 

 

 

 

Assign VOD Polling

Not generally changed. Defines the interval at which the

 

Interval

Portal Server polls the NXG server(s) for new content

 

 

(default 120 minutes). This is only used to poll for content

 

 

added to the NXG from an interface other than ETV Portal

 

 

Server. When adding a server, use Sync Now to sync the

 

 

program listings on the client Browse Video Library page

 

 

with the content on the new server.

 

 

 

 

Assign VoD Content

Defines the maximum number of simultaneous video files

 

Ingestion Maximum

that can be ingested to the NXG Video-on-Demand server.

 

 

The default is set to 2. Increasing the default may increase the

 

 

speed at which files will be transferred to the NXG server,

 

 

but may result in playback issues from the NXG Video-on-

 

 

Demand server. VBrick recommends keeping the defaults.
