URLs
Add/Modify a URL for a Live Video Stream
Administrators can manually enter URLs to live video streams that will not automatically be
displayed by the Portal Server. For example, the administrator may wish to have the
Announcements (SAPs) disabled on the VBrick encoders for security purposes. Or the
Administrator may want to enter the address of an off-network stream such as an MPEG-4
Stream from an Apple Darwin Server or a stream coming from a hosting provider.
Additionally, this feature lets you enter the addresses of non-MPEG streams such as
Windows Media and Real Networks. Note that the Access Control feature Allow Viewing by
Content Type does not apply to manually added URLs. You can also filter and control which
live streams are shown in the Portal Server by using a bit mask on the VBrick encoder. For
more about this feature, refer to the Category parameter in the appropriate MPEG, WM, or
H.264 encoder documentation.

QuickTime) must be present on the desktop for the client to be able to receive the
stream.
