    Hey, you're next door to us!
    Try this URL:
    http:(yourIP)/Cablecast/Plugins/RSSSchedule/rss.aspx?Days=3&ChannelID=1#

    ChannelID corresponds to the ID for the channel you set during installation. Days explains itself. That seems to be the minimal code that generates good RSS.

    Try it with our schedule at SATV:
    http://media.satvonline.org/Cablecast...

    David Moisan
    I plan to try it out. I've tried DriveImageXML, a popular imager, but it did not work. I caution, though, that most free imaging software is only free for private and noncommercial use, which excludes almost all of us.

    Backup disk image of SX-4
    A few days ago, I had to get a new hard drive for an SX-4 which had failed the system RAID array, and which had had a previous hard drive fail eight months previous.

    Had another drive in that array failed when we were waiting for a new drive, we would have been down hard.

    What does TRMS recommend for backup best practices? I am seriously considering a disk imaging program such as Acronis. I don't want another drive failure to happen without having a plan in place; it puts me in a very bad spot as the IT person.

    OK, I've nosed around and found the dropdown arrow on the encoder actions row. Entered a filename in the showid field, and got a file with encoded bars under the name I entered. I think this does it for now, I have sent a screenshot to Dave G..

    OK. I encoded some bars from the autopilot matrix/force device on encoder1. There was no file name in the drop down actions menu: just none, stop, movefile, record, recordstop. Screenshot enclosed.

    Hi, Chad, I'm the other Dave at SATV, the IT person. I watched Dave G. finish an encode the other day, which was successfull.

    I noted that the SXEncoder uses a blank file name (.mpg). Is that by design? Would it not be better to have it be saved as encode1, encode2, etc. (or untitled, untitled1...)? The XP console on the SX is normally set to not display file extensions ("hide files for known file types") and it is disconcerting to see a blank name with an icon when renaming.

    This next question is probably too big to answer in this thread but: we do many related file operations through XP's Explorer. Is there a workflow we are missing?

    A comment on the problem "DVD Import 5.0.0 build 28 crashes on Windows 2000SP4 workstation" in Tightrope Media Systems:

    David Moisan
    It's an Athlon XP. This is what SIW says:

    Number of CPU(s) One Physical Processor / One Core / One Logical Processor / 32 bits
    CPU Full Name AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+
    Vendor AuthenticAMD
    CPU Name AMD Athlon XP
    CPU Code Name Thoroughbred
    Platform Name Socket A (462)
    Revision B0
    Technology 0.13 μm
    Instructions MMX (+), 3DNow! (+), SSE
    Original System Clock 133 MHz
    System Clock 133.1 MHz
    FSB 266.3 MHz
    L1 Data Cache 64 KBytes
    L1 Instructions Cache 64 KBytes
    L2 Cache 256 KBytes

    I had wondered if it was due to the OS, since it is still Windows 2000SP4.

    I have reverted back to 4.6.0 on that particular machine (DVD Import runs on two of our machines) – David Moisan, on November 20, 2008 17:37

    DVD Import 5.0.0 build 28 crashes on Windows 2000SP4 workstation
    We are running DVD Import 5.0.0 build 28, after updating from 4.6.0. Workstation is Windows 2000 SP4 on an Athlon XP.

    It crashes at the multiplexing stage, and this is what I get in Event Viewer:

    We will go with the WebSchedule plugin. We had used the PrintSchedule because printouts are familiar to our users; for years, our schedule was a printout from Word. Our PD is OK with the WebSchedule now.

    PrintSchedule page requests authentication
    We use the PrintSchedule URL from our external website, exposed through URL and port fotwarding on our firewall.

    Since we installed a Cablecast SX4, I've noted the PrintSchedule page asks for a logon. This isn't what we want since the schedule is intended to be public. It screws up the firewall forwarding as well.

    Any way to change perms on the extras?

    OK. No change from our present installation that I can see. I am aware of the autologon considerations. Thanks.

    We use WSUS which allows us to manually approve and manually install updates. The cablecast machines are in their own OU per policy, so we pick a time of our own choosing. This means no change from the way I do things with the new machines

    Using Microsoft Update with SX4 and CG250's
    We just got an SX4 and CG250's. What is TRMS policy on Microsoft Update? We have used Windows Software Update Services (WSUS) on our existing Cablecast/Carousel system. Are there any problems with joining the new machines to the domain and using WSUS to manage their updates?
