Assign Content Expiration
Warning Recipient
Enter the semicolon-separated e-mail address(es) of the
person(s) responsible for renewing copyrighted or otherwise
protected content. When you configure or change either the
recipient or the mail server, the Portal Server will attempt to
send a test message. Check that this message is successfully
delivered. The Portal Server validates the e-mail address but
cannot detect other mail delivery failures. If the user's mail
box is full, for example, the message will not reach its
intended recipient to warn of impending content expiration.
Assign Mail Server Required field. SMTP mail server name. In Microsoft
Exchange, for example, go to Tools > E-mail Accounts > E-
mail > Microsoft Exchange Server > servername. An e-mail
to the assigned Content Expiration Warning Recipient is
generated when you configure or change this field.
Assign Presentations VBPresenter is used to create multimedia presentations that
can be launched from the Portal Server. The
Current
Presentations Directory
defines the virtual directory on the
Portal Server where the live presentations are stored—the
default is
Presentations. During a new Portal Server
installation, the required virtual and physical directories are
automatically created. To use a different virtual directory,
create the virtual directory in IIS and enter only the virtual
directory name in this field—do not enter the complete path.
The
Current Presentations User is a pseudo VBPresenter
user who will be given permission to publish to specified
directories and VOD servers. Configuring a Presentation
User on page 106 explains how to create this user; contact
VBrick Support Services
if you need help.
If you are upgrading from Portal Server v4.0.1 or earlier and
using VBPresenter, you will need to manually create two
virtual directories (
Presentations for live presentations and
MCSPresentations for stored presentations), giving the user
Everyone full permissions, and mapping the local paths
respectively to:
C:\Program Files\VBrick\MCS\Presentations
C:\Program Files\VBrick\MCS\MCSPresentations
Select Macintosh Player for
MPEG4 Content
Select the player to use for MPEG-4 content on Macintosh
clients:
• VBrick Player – users will be prompted to install a VBrick
plugin the first time they launch MPEG-4 content.
• Apple QuickTime Player – no plugin required. Does not
support access logging.
Assign AutoIngest The current autoingest via XML user name that has access
and publishing rights to a VOD server. See AutoIngest
Content via XML on page 113 for more information.
