management. ChyTV Tools works well with Windows XP, Windows 7 and other
Windows versions. However, with Windows 8 and beyond some functionality that the
original ChyTV Tools was based on has been removed. Therefore ChyTV is moving
forward with a newer
ChyTV Tools 2
version specifically architected for Windows 8 and
beyond systems.
The original ChyTV Tools will work with the HD-mini. However, some new features and
functions specifically targeting the HD-mini have been added to ChyTV Tools 2 and it is
recommended that ChyTV Tools 2 be used with the HD-mini.
The recommended applications to install are:
Application
Installation file name
Location on USB
ChyTV Tools 2
ChyTV_Tools2_1.0.x.msi
\ (root)
ChyTV Author
ChyTV_Author_5.0.x.x.msi
\ (root)
DirectX 9.0c
DXSETUP.exe
\DX Setup
Mini Network Setup ChyTV-mini_Network_Setup_1.0.x.msi \ChyTV mini
Note: DirectX 9.0c is required for ChyTV Author. This particular version is required due
to Microsoft removing some necessary functionality in later versions.
Setting up Wireless Networking
The HD-mini also includes a Wi-Fi dongle in addition to the hard-wire connection. The
most convenient method is to use the ChyTV-mini Network Setup utility shown below.
However this requires a hard-wire connection. It is possible to configure the Wireless
only using a USB thumb drive method. If this is required, please contact ChyTV support
for more information.
To use the ChyTV-mini Network Setup utility, follow the steps below:
1. Run ChyTV-mini Network Setup.
2.
Select the “Magnifying Glass” button to enter the Wired IP address. This would have
been displayed in the
“Gray” information screen on boot-up.
