RSS2000 Policies and Limitations
The maximum length of the system H.323 alias name is 16 characters
RS232 configuration: Baud rate 9600, Data bits 8, Parity None, Stop bits
1, Flow control OFF.
ONLY ONE connection to the Console service is allowed, either by
RS232 or by Telnet, but not both.
1. When schedule a dial out & record from the Web UI, RSS will
loopback the video and NEVER show the menu unless a menu
operation (FECC arrow keys or DTMF 2/4/6/8) is given from the
endpoint.
2. When a pre-defined endpoint dials into the RSS and the endpoint has
the "immediate recording" option, RSS will do the same as above.
3. When inviting an endpoint to a P2P recording room (using E.164
number of the P2P room followed by #/* and E.164 number of the
invited endpoint ), the inviting endpoint will have the menu and the
invited endpoint won't have the menu
4. When two endpoints meet at a P2P recording room, only one of them
can have the menu at a time.
Maximum bandwidth for a P2P recording room is 1024K. If video protocol
for P2P recording room is H.264, then the maximum bandwidth is 768K
If the media file size exceeds 4GB, downloading it from Web UI may be
incomplete.
Windows Media Player 9/10 is required. WMP 10 is recommended.
RealPlayer can also be used if WMP is properly installed.
QuickTime player is not supported.
Some third party media player such as Media Player Classic (MPC) and
VLC can also be used, but they were not certify
Archive playback with WMP does not support playback controls:
Pause/Resume/FF/Backward, etc
During H.323 playback, if there is packet loss and endpoint requests I-
Frame, RSS cannot apply the request. Since all audio/video data are from
the media file.
Hard reset (power off and on) is not recommended.
Reset should be done via the Web UI or Console service whenever
possible.
Microsoft Active Directory only
1. Only two H323 devices can receive Preview –Meaning when there
are 2 endpoints previewing on RSS2000 , the third one connect to
RSS2000 will not receive preview , if these two endpoints receiving
preview stop to preview or disconnect ,the third one still cannot
receive , it need to re-connect .
2. HD or SD archives cannot be previewed.
3. No Transcoding for Preview – Meaning archive recorded in H263
will not be able to be preview by an endpoint connected in H264 and
vice versa, however – endpoint support H264 and H263 – in case the
archive is in H263 – the playback will work well.
4, In a clustered configuration, H.323 endpoint cannot receive a
preview image of the archive that is not stored on the RSS unit that
the endpoint is connected. This description should be added to the
note her
When using the RSS2000ArchiveConverter – the transcoded file loaded
back to the RSS will be limited to 20 FPS
