SME 100 Media Players

For optimal performance of the SME 100, Extron recommends two media players
depending upon the firmware version. Firmware versions 2.0 and higher use the Extron
Streaming Media Player (SMP) (see

"Streaming Media Player (SMP) Web Browser

Plugin"

on page 51). Older firmware versions must use VLC media player and cannot

use SMP.

NOTE: Extron recommends upgrading older SME 100 devices to firmware

version 2.0 or higher and using the SMP web browser plugin for best
performance. See "

Determining the Firmware Version

" on page 170 to

determine the firmware version you are currently running.

The VLC media player version is critical. Only VLC Media Player Version 1.1.10 and 2.0.2
have been fully tested with the SME 100. If you do not have either version, go to the
archives of the VLC media player website at

www.videolan.org

and locate version 1.1.10

or 2.0.2.

Accessing the Web-based User Interface

To access the web-based user interface, open a web browser on a control PC
or viewing device and enter the IP address of the SME 100 (default IP address is
192.168.254.254) into the address bar.

NOTE: The system can be logged out of at any time using any of the interface

pages. Click on the

Log Off

link located in the upper right corner to exit the user

interface or simply close the web browser.
