Non-Video to Content (PC Users Only)
In the VoD Content section, Administrators can also link to external documents such as PDF
files, PowerPoint files, web pages, or anything that can be displayed in a browser or other
external program. For content that needs to loaded in a specific program (for example,
PowerPoint slides), the application must be present on the desktop for that file to be viewed.
These URLs can point to a web servers or local drive. The Portal Server server can act as the
web server for this content, if the content is placed in the c:\program files\vbrick\mcs
directory on the ETV Portal Server (or in any subdirectory you create, e.g.
... mcs\test_files\test.doc). A local path or network shared path also can be entered.
Content accessed from a local drive (or network shared path) needs to be entered in the
format c:/path/file (it will fail if you use back slashes, for example c:\path\file). Also,
this drive needs to be accessible by those that have access to the link.
Type Choose MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 or other (user Other for non-
MPEG streams).
