Pearl User Guide Configuration preset considerations
Branding content
The channels configuration group includes the filenames for logos and backgrounds used in the currently
configured channels. It does not include the image files. Therefore it is important to make sure that between
uses of different channel-related configuration presets you do not delete or replace files listed in the
Branding Content section of the web interface. There is currently no configuration group that includes the
Branding Content files.
EDIDs
EDIDs are uploaded and immediately applied to a specific source. This change remains in place until the user
uploads a new EDID or requests the factory EDID is applied by using the Restore default EDID button (see
Force the capture card to use a specific EDID
If you apply a preset that needs a special EDID, be sure to remember to upload that EDID after applying the
configuration preset.
Configuration presets are not user profiles
Configuration presets should not be confused with the concept of user profiles. Specifically, the following
issues arise from trying to use configuration presets as user profiles:
l
recorded files are not removed between application of configuration presets (users could see each
other's files)
l
configuration presets can be overwritten and deleted with no password (users could affect each other's
presets)
l
branding and recorded files can be deleted, affecting more than just the currently applied configuration
presets (users could erase branding or recordings belonging to other users)
l
applying a configuration presets does not clear the settings from groups not part of the preset (user
information is not private)
