Configuration: Script Management

Video On Demand

Enables or Disables the Video-on-Demand capability of the VBrick

 

appliance. When enabled, the user will be able to view Video-on-

 

Demand SAPs in the Program Guide. If authorized, the user will be

 

able to select Video-on-Demand SAPs and access the Video-on-

 

Demand features of the VoD server sending the SAP. If disabled, the

 

user will not see Video-on-Demand SAPs in the Program Guide.

 

 

SAP IP Address

The IP Address for Video-on-Demand SAPs Default value is

 

224.2.133.135 (as shown).

 

 

SAP Port

The Port for Video-on-Demand SAPs Default value is 9880 (as

 

shown).

 

 

SAP Timeout

The Video-on-Demand SAP timeout, in seconds. Default value is 90

 

(as shown).

 

 

Note The values of the SAP IP Address and Port must correspond to the values set on the

VBVoD servers sending Video-on-Demand SAPs. If the values of the SAP IP Address or Port are changed without changing the values on the VoD servers, Video- on-Demand SAPs will not be received even if when Video-on-Demand is enabled.

Configuration: Script Management

Configuration: Script Management > Event Triggering

You can create and run scripts to activate certain functions on a VBrick appliance. There are three ways to run scripts on an appliance. (1) You can run scripts for test purposes using the Run Script button in IWS; (2) you can use the IR Remote Control; and (3) you can use an external event trigger (see "Event Triggering" in the VBrick Appliance Getting Started Guide).

The VBrick appliance can be set up to use serial (COM1) Pins 7 and 8, or 0 through 9 on the IR Remote as input events to trigger the VBrick to run scripts. The script files execute certain commands using VBrick SDK parameters to activate certain functions within the VBrick appliance. There are a total of four possible input events (COM1 Pin8 Low, COM1 Pin8 High, COM1 Pin7 Low, COM1 Pin7 High) and ten possible input events using the IR Remote (each has one associated script file).

For more information about the VBrick SDK, contact your certified VBrick reseller or VBrick Support Services. To purchase the SDK directly from VBrick, go to: www.vbrick.com/products/purchase.asp.

Note You cannot execute a script either with the IR Remote Control or using an event trigger if IWS is currently running in Edit mode. If you run a script directly from IWS, it automatically exits Edit mode and terminates the active editing session.

Run Scripts Using IWS

You can run scripts that were previously created with the VBrick SDK using the Run Script button in IWS. This button is only available in Edit mode and is basically used for test purposes. See Sample Script below
