iTX Playout Appliance

Installation & Quick Start Guide

• If a required media file is not in the cache, TXPlay supplies details of the Media

Store location of the file; the iTX Player then plays out the media file from that
location.

• The

Media Cache Service

maintains the Output Server cache. It sends cache

requests to the Output Server so that media files are in the cache when they are
due to play out.

TXEdit

manages offline schedules. It performs the same scheduling functions as TXPlay,

but does not send playout commands to the Output Server

Note:

Refer to the iTX System Administrator Guide for complete information

about the iTX software applications and service components.

5 Since the iTX Playout Appliance and iTX software components are factory-configured

with many generic settings, you must now configure some of the Windows, system and
iTX software settings. See

Software Configuration Procedures

, on page 15 for

instructions.
