Channels & Media Control
The DVP is capable of channeling or bridging over the
network to other channeled or bridgeable AMD product
(e.g. DMR, DMR HD, and VIdi HD) to view/play archived
content, and or play live streams.
Video-On-Demand Channel Settings
A Video-on-Demand channel is a way to link up to a like
optioned DMR, DVP, DVP, VIDi HD-d, and VIDi HD units
simultaneously. By clicking on "Add New Channel" a
window will open allowing you to enter the IP address
of the device you want to connect to.
It is important to mention that if a DVP for example is
Web Porting into a DMR-HD that the DMR-HD Channel
settings has allowed the live streams viewing and
archived media playback. Otherwise, the DVP will not
be able to make a proper channel linkage. If a password
has been set for Channel access into the DMR-HD, then
the DVP will need to provide it as well to be able and
channel to it.
After filling in the IP address of the media source,
typing in the password if applicable, and clicking on the
"Add Channel" button, you will be able to view any and
all channeled units simultaneously.
