MySQL
EtherneTV Portal Server is shipped with MySQL™ as the database. The MySQL database is
installed as part of the Portal Server installation package. If the hardware/software
combination was purchased from VBrick, MySQL will already be installed on your machine;
the default user name is
root. To protect the integrity of the database, you should change the
default password (
vbrick_18) after initial installation and periodically thereafter.
T To change the MySQL password:
1. Open a Command Prompt window.
2. At the C: prompt type
cd program files\mysql\mysql server 4.1\bin and press
Enter.
3. Type
mysql -uroot -pvbrick_18 and press Enter.
4. Type
set password for 'root'@'localhost'=password ('new_password'); (where
'new_password' in single quotes is the new password) and press Enter.
5. Type
exit.
ETV Portal Server
The VBrick EtherneTV (ETV) Portal Server is a web-based portal for accessing Live and On-
Demand audio and video files. A key component of VBrick's EtherneTV Media Distribution
System, the ETV Portal Server provides a simple interface to easily locate available media
assets on your network. Upon accessing the main portal page, users can navigate or search for
specific videos, select the video, and immediately begin viewing up to DVD quality video. For
on-demand videos, users can
Fast Forward/Rewind and Seek to specific points in the video.
Standard access control functionality provides restriction of certain content to particular
users, user groups, or set-top boxes. An optional scheduling module allows users to schedule
devices to send video, receive video, record video, or to initiate a two-way conference.
Note MySQL Query Browser is an Open Source front-end that provides a graphical
interface to the MySQL database. MySQL Query Browser is available free of charge
