Adding Control Devices
Use the following windows to define or modify control devices. As noted, these devices will
be displayed on the
Live Broadcasts page with a special icon for any users with access to that
encoder. If the device is used as a source encoder for a scheduled broadcast, however, only the user who
actually created the schedule will have access during the scheduled period. This prevents other users
from potentially interrupting the broadcast. If the Portal Server does not have a Scheduling
license, all control devices are available at any time to any user with VBrick access and other
permissions. See "Using the Scheduler" in the Portal Server User Guide for an explanation of
how to schedule events for control devices.
T To define a control device
1. Go to
Global Settings > Control Devices and select Add Control Devices.
2. Complete the fields on the next screen as explained below and click
Submit.
Note The Amino set top box does not recognize "control devices." Any video source
devices configured as
Control Devices in the Portal Server will not display a "virtual"
remote control panel on the Amino set top box.
