PUSH MODE / PULL MODE

Method 2: Configuration using the settings.xml file

1. Open the

settings.xml file and locate the <ipConfig> section:

<name value=

”Gefen Player”

/>

<ipConfig>

<ipMode value=

”manual”

/>

<automatic />

<manual>

<ip value=

”192.168.2.238”

/>

<subnet value=

”255.255.255.0”

/>

<gateway value=

”0.0.0.0”

/>

<dns1 value=

”4.2.2.2”

/>

<dns2 value=

”8.8.8.8”

/>

</manual>

</ipConfig>

<osdConfig>

2. DHCP or a static IP address can be used:

a) If DHCP is being used, then set the

<ipMode value> tag to

automatic. Any information under the <manual> tag will be ignored.

b) If a static IP is being used, then the

<ipMode value> tag should be

set to the IP address that will be assigned to the Hi-Def Digital Signage

Media Player. In addition, Subnet, Gateway, and DNS server values

must be specified.

3. Next, locate the

<pullConfig> tags:

<pullConfig>

<pullMode value=”enable” />

<disable />

<enable>

<pullURL value=”192.168.2.70” />

<settingPull value=”192.168.2.70” />

<schedulePull value=”192.168.2.70/schedules” />

<playlistPull value=”192.168.2.70/playlists” />

<contentPull value=”192.168.2.70/media” />

<pullLogUpload value=”192.168.2.70” />
