System Login
The user interface for the EASyCAP Encoder/Decoder uses a secure web Encoder/Decoder
(HTTPS) over port 443. Trilithic recommends using the Mozilla Firefox (V3.6 or newer) web
browser.
The certificate used by the EASyCAP Encoder/Decoder is not signed by a trusted certificate
authority (VeriSign, etc) so web browsers will automatically display a security alert about the
certificate the first time you connect. At this point, ackowledge the security alert and continue to the
site even though the certificate isn’t trusted.
When using Mozilla Firefox (V3.6 or newer), the web browser will retain the security setting for the
next time you connect the the Encoder/Decoder. However, if you are using Internet Explorer, the
security alert will be displayed every time that you connect to the web Encoder/Decoder. To
disable this, you must install the Trilithic certificate onto your PC. This can be done by clicking on
the Certificate Error message (next to the URL), then click “View certificates”, and finally press the
“Install Certificates” button.
