Intuition XG’s Desktop Applications & Tools
Embedded Xmedia Server Control Panel
The Intuition XG contains an Embedded Xmedia Server (EXMS), which acts as a local
asset database, as well as offering various services to the Intuition XG.
The user interface for configuring and controlling the Embedded Xmedia Server is the
E
MBEDDED X MEDIA S ERVER (EXMS) C ONTROL P ANEL . The EXMS Control Panel features
eleven (11) tabbed pages that contain parameters and settings related to the configuration
and functioning of the Embedded Xmedia Server.
To open the EXMS Control Panel window, open Windows Explorer (see page 3-12 ) and
navigate to C ONTROL P ANEL >V ERTIGO X MEDIA X MEDIA S ERVER .
N OTE
Since all of the Vertigo applications are running locally on the Intuition XG (e.g. Xplay), they
connect to the EXMS by specifying localhost as their XM
EDIA S ERVER IP A DDRESS .
The following table describes a sampling of the EXMS Control Panels tabbed pages, which
are of particular interest when configuring Intuition XG devices:
General
The G ENERAL page provides a quick view of the EXMS’s product
information like version and paths for the executable and working
folder.
The D IRECTORIES C ONFIGURATION properties allow you to specify and
view the Embedded Xmedia Server’s communication port and the full
directory paths where the EXMS stores or retrieves information from.
The Authorization Manager Configuration section allows you to
configure, enable, or disable the Vertigo Suite’s User Rights
Management.
Service Control
In most cases, the EXMS service is set to automatically launch and
run in the background when the Intuition XG is powered up.
At times, the service may need to be stopped and restarted, either
manually or as the result of a failure in the system. Therefore, the
EXMS Control Panel’s Service Control page provides you with
buttons and settings for stopping and restarting the EXMS service.
