Access to the server is through the address bar on Internet Explorer browser:
Open an Internet Explorer browser.
Enter the EtherneTV MCS host name or IP address (for example, http://
mcsservername).
This directs a user to the EtherneTV MCS Home Page, where the choices available are:
Watch Television – View live streams available on the network.
Video-on-Demand – View pre-recorded content available from the EtherneTV-NXG
server.
Scheduled Viewing – View scheduled programs.
Download Components (Windows-based
PCs only)
For Windows-based PC users, VBrick uses StreamPlayer software-based components to
decode streams on the desktop. The EtherneTV MCS downloads these components to the
desktop the first time the server is accessed, with user permission. No download is
necessary for subsequent access.
If this is a new installation, it is necessary to answer Yes to security requests to download
components.
The EtherneTV MCS may require the installation of up to five components. If the box is
checked, “Always trust content from VBrick Systems Incorporated,” the user only answers
one time and content will be automatically downloaded.
NOTE: It is not necessary to restart the computer after each download.
