3.11 Working with Servers and Diagnostics
NOTE:
Password-protected
; Installers and service technicians only.
A service login provides three additional
Status
menus-
Server
,
Diag
and
Interrogator
-for testing certain
server functions and communications, or for advanced projector diagnostics.
3.11.1 TPC Status: Server Menu
The
Status: Server
menu provides controls for testing or confirming subtitling and/or metadata commands
supplied with presentation content from the site's controlling cinema server. The relevant .xml files-one for
subtitling, one for metadata-can be searched and examined for errors in content or in transmission from the
server. Reported errors can then help point to potential problems with the server, the .xml file, or the
communication link to the projector. Note that controls in the
Server
menu do
not
activate or turn off metadata
or subtitling. Controls are diagnostic tools only.
TEST SUBTITLING FILE (.xml)
:
Enable the
Subtitling
button to test an .xml file supplied with content for control of performance parameters
such as synchronization with content, language, font type, font color, position, etc., in the current presentation.
Define the desired URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)-i.e., cinema server or distributor-providing the subtitling
.xml file you wish to examine, then select
Enable
to begin the test. Any errors encountered in file content or
transmission from the server (for example, a lost file, a server crash, loss of communication with the server,
etc.) will appear in the window, and the
Enable
checkbox will clear.
TEST METADATA (.xml):
Enable the
Meta File
button to test a supplied .xml file required for auto-configuring display parameters such
as colors, aspect ratio, watermarks, etc., in certain distributed content. Such metadata-a.k.a. data about data-is
embedded in the video stream content and should be modified only by the distributor, but the test may result in
errors pointing to problems in metadata content or its transmission from the server.
