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. VBrick

 

EtherneTV and players can be configured to display in their Program

 

and Conferencing guides only video streams tagged by specific

 

category keywords or those containing no keyword. The characters are

 

ASCII and case sensitive. The maximum number of characters for all

 

keywords in the string cannot exceed 36 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.

The banner image is displayed below the video window during

 

playback. When set to the special DefaultBanner string the reference in

 

the .asx file is set to the banner.gif file on the VBrick. If you do not

 

wish to use a banner, leave this setting empty. To use your own banner

 

you can create an image file and place it on a server or shared drive on

 

your network and enter the URL or path to your banner file (for

 

example http://myserver/mybanner.gif or

 

\\corpserver\images\mybanner.gif.) The location of the banner file

 

must be accessible by all the player PCs that will be viewing your

 

stream. Windows Media player will display a banner image up to 32

 

pixels high by 640 pixels wide.
