the Live Broadcasts page. Once a device has been defined, it is available to all users (with

access to that device) unless it is reserved for a scheduled event. If reserved for a scheduled

event and in order to avoid conflicts, only the user who created the schedule can access the

device. (Mouseover the hyperlink for a schedule event to see the owner.) Once defined, you

can control a device using a graphical control panel. On the

Live Broadcasts page, any stream

originating from a control device is distinguished by a special icon. Click on the icon to

launch the stream and the control panel for the device. The control panel you see will vary

depending on the actual device. Click on the arrow icons on the right side of the panel to

show or hide the panel.

Asset Library

If the ETV Portal Server installation includes one or more VOD Video-on-Demand servers,

the Asset Library link on the home page displays a list of content stored in folders and files

on the server. Note that you will only see those folders for which you have been given

permission. To launch a stored video, simply click on any video and it will launch in the

Preview Window. Note that video content may be limited to a specific number of viewers. If

you receive a message indicating the stream exceeds the maximum number of concurrent

viewers, contact a system administrator. You can use the following keyboard shortcuts to

work with streams if you first click on the player.
