Importing, Exporting, & Resetting Profiles
Under the both the Encoder, Decoder, and Transcoder menus, you will find an Import menu
item, an Export menu item, and a Default menu item. These operations provide a quick and easy
means for transferring the configuration of one QVidium H.264 SD Video
Codec™ to another
H.264 SD Video Codec™ or for resetting the configuration settings to a known state. From the
Web browser interface, clicking on Export opens a panel that allows you to specify the name of a
file to store configuration information. To configure another codec with the same parameters, just
point the browser to the second Codec that you want to configure. You can then click on Import to
automatically configure that second codec, specifying the file you had just used to save the
configuration of the first codec.
Default will reset the configuration settings for the Encoder, Decoder, or Transcoder, depending
upon which Default menu you select, to their factory default settings. This will allow you to reset
the configuration settings to a known good state. Clicking on Default will bring up a confirmation
dialog box to prevent accidental resetting of the configuration. Default can be helpful if you have
trouble getting the encoder to work properly or cannot remember the correct settings, you can click
on Default to restore the encoder configuration with the factory default profile.
You may find it useful to use a USB flash memory stick to store these configuration profiles. All
configurations a stored as Unix text files. If you have a text editor such as Notepad++, which has a
Unix editing mode, you have the option of editing an encoder configuration profile manually. All
parameters are stored in the form of multiple lines of Paramer=Value<LF>.
