AirMedia® Presentation Gateway • 45
After the folder is created on a Windows computer, the configuration file must be created. On
macOS, a blank file is automatically created. The config.ini file contains the location of the room
list XML file. The file contains two items: the section
Crestron
and the key
XMLPath
. An
example of a config.ini file is shown below.
[Crestron]
XMLPath=M:\config\airmedia\room_list.xml
When the AirMedia sender application starts, it attempts to read the file at the location
specified by the XMLPath. Consider the following when specifying an XML path:
l
Do not enclose the path in quotes.
l
Environmental variables are not supported.
l
When updates are necessary, a change applied to this file when it's administered locally or
on the network will allow users quick access to the available AirMedia rooms.
l
On Windows:
