Note the following:
• Starting with version 2.6, the Interplay Transcode service and the STP Encode service
require you to choose during installation how ISIS workspaces are mounted: by drive letter
or by UNC path. For multiple ISIS workgroups, select UNC paths if the number of
workspaces required for the client exceeds the available drive letters. Mount the workspaces
before you start the service.
You use the ISIS Client Manager or MediaNetwork Connection Manager to mount drives. For
more information on mounting workspaces, see the Avid Unity MediaNetwork Connection
Manager Help or the Avid ISIS Client Manager Help.
Installing Delivery Receiver with the Sphere Option
The Delivery Receiver installer for Interplay v2.7 and later contains an option that allows you to
install the version that works with Interplay Sphere. Both versions allow you to perform
non-Sphere related Deliveries. The Sphere version contains additional software that supports
Sphere deliveries.
If you plan to install the Sphere version on a system that already contains an earlier version of
Delivery Receiver (v2.6 or earlier), use the Windows Control Panel to uninstall the older version
before you install the Interplay v2.7 version.
Delivery Receiver Data Ports
Delivery Receiver requires one command port and a number of data ports. These ports must be
open on the Delivery Receiver system so that it can communicate with clients that are sending
delivery jobs from other sites. The default ports are as follows:
• command port: 33321
• data ports: 20020 through 21020
You can change the port numbers and you can also limit the number of data ports. The Interplay
Media Services Setup Guide describes how to change the port numbers. The previous version of
the guide incorrectly stated that you must have one data port available for each Delivery
Provider. The correct statement is that you must have one port open for each concurrent delivery
job being processed by the Delivery Receiver. The Delivery Receiver selects ports consecutively
from the beginning of the list as new jobs come in.
