9 NETSTREAM IP Output Option
9.1 General Info
This section is relevant only to customers that have the NETSTREAM
option fitted in their SOLO2 or SOLO4 receiver.
The NETSTREAM can only be fitted in box style 2.
The NETSTREAM product features an RJ45 socket for connection to
10 Base T or 100 Base T Ethernet networks. The network interface
automatically switches between 10 Base T and 100 Base T as required.
The connector is wired for straight connection to a network Hub and
does not automatically compensate for Ethernet crossovers. If a direct
connection to a PC is required, then an Ethernet cross over cable
should be used.
9.2 Streamer
The main use for the NETSTREAM card is to allow viewing of the
received video/audio signal on a standard PC (or laptop) running the
domo software decoder software (part number NETSWDR).
Data is transmitted over the Ethernet network by means of “multicasting”
i.e. continuous real-time streaming of packets accessible to any PC
connected to the network.
It is therefore possible for more than once connected PC to view the
streamed data simultaneously.
Two types of multicast IP packets are streamed.
Packets carrying video, audio and data as received by the unit;
Packets known as Session Announcement Protocol and Sessions
Description Protocol data (SAP and SDP), which contain information
regarding the nature and location of the stream itself.
9.3 Web Server
The unit features a web server, which can be used to change the
configuration of the streaming parameters.
The default IP address of the unit when delivered is 192.168.0.71
A standard Internet browser can be used to reach the configuration
page of the unit.
The URL of the configuration page is http://192.168.0.71/index.htm
Note that the address of the index page will change in the instance that the NETSTREAM
IP address is subsequently changed.
