Category

 

An encoder can have a SAP Category string. This string consists of

 

 

 

one or more keywords separated by spaces. Each category keyword

 

 

 

represents a tag associated with the Encoder's video stream.

 

 

 

Decoders can be configured to display in their Program and Guides

 

 

 

only video streams tagged by specific category keywords or those

 

 

 

containing no keyword. The string(s), used by the Decoder, is set on

 

 

 

the Decoder/Network screen. Note: Characters are ASCII and are

 

 

 

case sensitive. The total of all keywords in the string is 36 characters

 

 

 

including spaces.

 

 

 

You can also use this field to filter the live streams shown in the

 

 

 

ETV Portal Server by source and client IP address by using the

 

 

 

following string: IPMask=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

 

 

 

represents a bit mask. (This string is simply another keyword you

 

 

 

can use in addition to those described above.) The Portal Server will

 

 

 

parse the bitmask and send the live stream only to clients with a

 

 

 

masked IP address that matches the masked IP address of the

 

 

 

source VBrick. For example, a stream with a category

 

 

 

IPMask=255.255.0.0 from a VBrick with an address of 172.22.6.67

 

 

 

will be available to a client with an IP address 172.22.3.4 but not to

 

 

 

a client with an IP Address 172.16.3.4. There is no admin interface

 

 

 

to this feature on the Portal Server; you can use this filtering in

 

 

 

addition to the standard authorization features provided by the

 

 

 

Portal Server.

 

 

 

 

 

Session Information

 

A string identifying VBrick SAP Session Information. See Program

 

 

 

Name field for a description of replace characters (\h, \b or \f).

 

 

 

Appears on Program Guide. Default is "VBrick Streaming Video".

Transmit

Enables or disables the transmission of the SAP.

 

 

 

 

Retransmit Time

If SAP Timing is fixed, this is the time (in seconds) between

 

 

transmissions of SAPs (1 – 9999). If SAP Timing is variable, the actual

 

 

retransmit time as per RFC 2974 is reported back. Please refer to

 

 

Configuration: System > General.

 

 

 

 

Time to Live

The number of hops (between routers) for which an IP packet is valid

 

 

on the network.

 

 

 

 

Type of Service

The TOS (Type of Service) can be configured in the IP header to

 

 

establish SAP packet priority in the network.

 

 

 

 

SAP IP Address

The receive IP address used to populate the Program Guide. This is

 

 

typically set to the Announce Program Guide SAP of the encoder.
