Control Device
Control devices are video sources like DVDs or VCRs that can be controlled by end users
from the Portal Server. A control device is connected to a VBrick encoder. It allows client-
side control of the device and must be configured by a system administrator. (If no control
devices are configured, Control Device is not shown as a Schedule Type.) Once configured, a special
icon on the
Live Media
page indicates that you can control a stream from the device using a
graphical control panel similar to the one shown here. This panel is displayed when you
launch the stream and you can use it for supported functions like
Start
,
Stop
,
Fast Forward
,
etc.
Note Control devices are not supported in VEMS v5.0. Existing control devices are
compatible with VEMS 5.0 but have not been fully tested and will not be initially
supported by VBrick—use them at your own risk. VBrick will provide full support for
control devices in VEMS v5.1.
