Overview
The CONFIGURATION tab consists of several sub-tabs in which all recording-based parameters are
provisioned for various cDVR components, such as transcoders (Imagine Communications-based or

from the CONFIGURATION tab. The sub-tabs are described in detail in subsequent sections, but are
shown and briefly described below as an overview.
