Set Expired VOD Content
Treatment
Specifies whether expired content will be kept or
automatically deleted at the expiration date.
Assign Content Expiration
Warning Recipient
Enter one e-mail address for the person who is 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. For more about
content expiration, see Copyright Protection
on page 3.
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 114
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

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.
