Set Cisco ACNS Manifest	Check the box to enable generation of a Cisco ACNS
Options	Manifest File. (The Cisco ACNS server must be configured
	to point to this file.) Select the files (MPEG-4 and/or WM)
	to include in the file, and specify a Manifest Generation
	Interval (default = 10 minutes) that defines how often the
	file will be regenerated. Click Generate Now to create an "on
	demand" file. ACNS copies all MPEG-2 and WM video files
	to all (Windows Media, Darwin, and VOD-W) servers in your
	EtherneTV system. Additional configuration steps are
	required on the VOD-W server only. See ACNS
	Configuration on page 123 for more about ACNS.

Custom Fields

Custom fields are used to add additional fields to the Info pages associated with stored videos and live broadcast streams. All stored videos, and those live streams that have been "customized," have an Info hyperlink. By default, the Info page has fields for Description and Keywords. The Custom Fields functionality lets you add additional "custom" fields that are appropriate to your business or application. This lets you provide more information on the page and it also makes it easier to search for specific streams. (All defined fields are listed in the dropdown list box next to the Search button.)

When you add a custom field using this function, the field is available to administrators as a selection in the Customize Streams window. It is also available to end users as the Modify Info button on the Info pages associated with stored videos (if they have content publishing permissions).
