page.

Name: This is the name of the channel as it will be displayed
on the set top box application, edjeGuide, and the PC decoder,
edjePlayer.

category this channel is associated with. A future feature of
iptvManage will allow a channel to be assigned to multiple

categories.

Stream IP: Each channel is assigned an IP stream address when configured
and the assigned IPA is listed in this column.

Action: The action column shows the delete (x), edit, guide and watch
options. Deleting a channel will remove the channel from the database
permanently. To edit a channel, click on the edit link. The fields available for
editing are described further in the Add a Channel section. To view what is
currently being shown on the channel, click the Watch link. The stream and a
control panel will open in a new window using the VLC video plugin. Make sure

you have installed the latest plugin from www.videolan.org for this feature
to work. Clicking on the guide information will show you any guide data
associated with that channel and allow you to modify the guide data. See the
following section on Guide for more details.

matching your criteria. To remove the filter and view the complete list again,
click on the X Remove Filter link.
