Using an NVR
As noted, the Portal Server and the Network Video Recorder are installed on separate
machines. Using the Admin Console, you configure the NVR by indicating where record files
will be stored, and defining the maximum number of simultaneous recording the NVR will
support (which is less than or equal to the licensed number of recordings). The record
can be set to local hard drive on the NVR machine or to a network drive. In a Portal Server
installation, from PCs or IPRs, end users can access NVR record features (record start/
record stop) through using the Portal Server. When a recording is initiated using the
button on the
Live Broadcasts
ingested to available VOD servers, based on the stream type (e.g. MPEG2, MPEG4, etc.) and
user's permissions. After ingestion, the record file can be automatically deleted from record
server based on the Global Settings configuration.
When a record is initiated through Scheduler interface of Portal Server, end users can specify
whether they want to FTP the recorded file to available FTP servers or to ingest the recorded
file to available VOD servers. They can also specify whether or not to automatically delete the
file after a successful FTP or ingestion. (These options are not available in "batch" mode. If
you select

In a standard NVR configuration, live streams can be recorded (1) by using the

Scheduler" in the Portal Server User Guide.
