PERATION
The Presentation Recorders have six major modes of operation:
Record to File
– The Presentation Recorder only records the file to storage. Once the
Session has ended the file may be automatically uploaded to a video-on-demand server
for later playback by client PCs or mobile devices.
Send a Unicast or Multicast Stream
– In this mode of operation one of the Presentation
Recorders is designated as the “Sender” and all of the other units are designated as
“Receivers”. The media streams originate from the Sender and are decoded by one or
more Receivers or desktop client media players. The transmission is strictly one-way, and
no feedback or interactivity is provided for. The one-to-many operation is enabled via use
of multicast connected networks. The unit is able to stream and record simultaneously.
Send a Unicast or Multicast Stream and Record to File
– This mode of operation is the
same as “
Send a Unicast or Multicast Stream
” with the addition of simultaneous
recording an archiving of the captured Session. The archive is first stored internally in local
NCast Corporation
