3.4 No channel names shown in the channel list
If no channels are shown in the channel list as above, this is likely to be a
problem regarding the firewall installed on the PC. To view the channel list
avediaCentre requires that a single port be opened in the firewall to allow the
channels to announce themselves. If no channels are seen it is likely that the
firewall is blocking this port: if you are using the Windows firewall the
installation will add this port to the firewall exceptions list.
The port to be added is UDP port 9875.
If you are not using the Windows firewall you will need to consult the
documentation for the specific firewall you are using. Most firewalls will
prompt the user when a request is made by an application to use a blocked
port; however this is not always the case. Here we will describe the steps for
the Windows firewall.
