Changing the server

Introduction

The server determines which channels are available to you. To allow your set-top box to display streams from a TV Server or HD Encoder appliance, you must configure it with the IP or hostname of up to three Encoded Media appliances on your network.

Prerequisites

  • Encoded Media IPTV Manager Pro

Overview

Once duly configured, the box will contact the first responsive appliance and download the available channel bouquet from it.

Process

  1. With the Set Top Boxes node selected in the left navigation pane:
  2. Highlight one or more target boxes individually, in a range, or by selection
  3. Right-click any of the highlighted entries
  4. Choose Tools from the pop-up menu, then Set Server
  5. Edit the three Server fields and press OK to save your changes, or Cancel to discard them. At least one server must be defined.
