Environmental Issues  
Thank you for buying a product which contributes to a reduction  
in pollution, and thereby helps save the environment. Our  
products reduce the need for travel and transport and thereby  
reduce pollution. Our products have either none or few  
consumable parts (chemicals, toner, gas, paper). Our products  
are low energy consuming products.  
European Environmental Directives  
Information for Recyclers  
As a manufacturer of electrical and electronic equipment  
TANDBERG is responsible for compliance with the requirements  
in the European Directives 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and 2002/95/EC  
(RoHS).  
As part of compliance with the European WEEE Directive,  
TANDBERG provides recycling information on request for all  
types of new equipment put on the market in Europe after  
August 13th 2005.  
The primary aim of the WEEE Directive and RoHS Directive is  
to reduce the impact of disposal of electrical and electronic  
equipment at end-of-life. The WEEE Directive aims to reduce  
the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration  
by requiring producers to arrange for collection and recycling.  
The RoHS Directive bans the use of certain heavy metals and  
brominated flame retardants to reduce the environmental impact  
of WEEE which is landfilled or incinerated.  
Please contact TANDBERG and provide the following details  
for the product for which you would like to receive recycling  
information:  
TANDBERG’s Environmental Policy  
Environmental stewardship is important to TANDBERG’s culture.

Digital User Guides  
Provide products and services that improve quality of life for  
TANDBERG is pleased to announce that we have replaced the  
printed versions of our User Guides with a digital CD version.  
Instead of a range of different user manuals, there is now one  
CD – which can be used with all TANDBERG products – in a  
variety of languages. The environmental benefits of this are  
significant. The CDs are recyclable and the savings on paper  
are huge. A simple web-based search feature helps you directly  
access the information you need. In addition, the TANDBERG  
video systems now have an intuitive on-screen help function,  
which provides a range of useful features and tips. The contents  
of the CD can still be printed locally, whenever needed.

In order to avoid the dissemination of hazardous  
substances in our environment and to diminish the  
pressure on natural resources, we encourage you to  
use the appropriate take-back systems in your area.  
Those systems will reuse or recycle most of the  
materials of your end of life equipment in a sound  
way.

TANDBERG products put on the market after August 2005 are  
marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin symbol that invites you to

Quick Setup  
We recommend that you check the  
TANDBERG web site regularly for updated  
versions of this manual:  
The Quick Setup section will help you get your Content Server online  
and operational quickly. It provides a step-by-step guide to the basic  
H.323 services setup via the Content Server web interface as well as  
a description of the optional QuickTime installation. The latter should  
be installed only if strictly needed and we ask you to take care so  
that you install the correct version. Please note that as a security  
precaution, you should change the administrative password at setup  
time and before the Content Server is used in production.

About Basic H.ꢁꢀꢁ Services  
Initial Setup  
A quick basic setup of your TANDBERG  
Content Server includes:  
Start a Web browser and enter the IP  
address of the Content Server. You  
can use either http or https, with  
https recommended for administrative  
access.  
When prompted for login, enter the  
username administrator and  
password.  
Go to Conference Setup> Recording  
Alias Options. Edit the E.164 aliases  
and H323 IDs for the default Recording  
Aliases and save.  
1. Setting up H.323 services via the Content  
Server interface  
ꢀ. Making a test call recording  
ꢁ. Changing the administrator password and  
setting up server date and time on the  
Windows Server.  
In addition there is an optional QuickTime  
Installation available. This installation is only  
needed if you require calls to be recorded and  
streamed in the QuickTime® format.  
If you will be recording calls in two  
formats only – Windows Media and  
Real Media formats, you do NOT need  
to install QuickTime on the server.  
Go to the Administrator Settings > Site  
Settings to set the System Name and  
E.1ꢄꢂ alias for the Content Server.  
If required, set Gatekeeper registra-  
tion to Enabled, select Gatekeeper  
Discovery method (Auto or Manual)  
and set the Gatekeeper IP address.  
You can choose to register the Content  
Server as a Terminal or a Gateway. If you  
select Gateway registration, you will  
need to enter H.323 and E.164 Gateway  
prefixes.  
Save the Site Settings. You may refresh  
the browser page to check if gatekeeper  
registration has been successful.  
Make sure that the E.164 aliases and  
H.323 IDs are valid for your Gatekeep-  
er or Border Controller.  
You can register the Content Server with  
either Gatekeeper or Border Controller.  
For simplicity in this User guide we’ll use  
‘gatekeeper’ to refer to either device.  
The default local administrator account  
should be used for administrative  
!
functions such as system upgrades  
and updates and when using Remote Desktop  
access to the Content Server. It is therefore  
very important to change your password as  
described in the Windows Server Setup section.

Use Static Ports is disabled by default.  
This means that the system will  
dynamically allocate which ports to use  
when opening a TCP/UDP connection.  
Static ports can be enabled by selecting  
the checkbox and specifying the required  
range of ports.  
Port Range. 3230 to 3250 is the  
standard firewall port range. It needs  
to be configured according to your local  
firewall settings.  
NAT. Network Address Translation is used  
when the Server is connected to a router  
with NAT support. The default setting for  
NAT is OFF.  
If NAT is ON, the system will signal the  
configured NAT address in place of its own  
IP address within Q.931 and H.245.  
If NAT is set to AUTO, the system will try  
to determine whether the NAT address  
or the real IP address should be used for  
signaling. This is done to make it possible  
to make calls to endpoints on the LAN as  
well as WAN.  
NAT Address. The NAT address must be  
the global, external address to a router  
with NAT support. In the router, the  
following ports must be routed to the  
system’s IP address:  
Port 1720  
Port 2326–2365

If a gatekeeper responds to the request  
sent from the codec within 30 seconds  
this specific gatekeeper will be used.  
This requires auto discovery on the  
gatekeeper as well. If no gatekeeper  
responds, the system will not use a

Site Codec Support  
Default Site Codec Support Settings:  
Windows Media - enabled by default  
for live and on demand streaming  
Real Media - enabled by default for  
on demand streaming. An external  
streaming server is required for live  
streaming  
QuickTime – disabled by default.  
You should only enable QuickTime  
after manually installing the  
recommended version of QuickTime  
on the Content Server (see the  
section on QuickTime installation  
for more details). On demand  
streaming will then be available, but  
an external streaming server will be  
required for live streaming.  
Administrators can disable or enable  
individual codecs to suit their  
installation requirements. Disabling  
codec support sitewide in this menu will  
affect template selections in Recording  
Aliases. For example, if the Real Media  
codec is disabled, users will not be  
able to select any templates for their  
Recording Alias which use only this  
codec for recording. If disabling Site  
Codecs, it is advisable that Recording  
Aliases are checked and templates  
changed accordingly.  
If the Enable stream redirect  
option is selected, the standard  
Windows Media stream URL  
will be wrapped in an asx file and then  
passed as the new media path URL.  
This option is only recommended when  
using the Content Server in combination  
with a CDN solution that supports asx  
file rewriting.

Server to be entered in the Authentication section. At  
this time, only Microsoft Active Directory Server is supported

method for the Content Server.  
Choose Local. If you select Local  
authentication, only users with valid local  
accounts who have been added through  
the User Management page will be able to  
log in. Local groups are not supported.  
Choose Domain. If you select Domain  
authentication, the Content Server must  
be added to the domain, and details of the  
LDAP server used for authentication must  
be filled out in the fields below. Please  
see below for more notes on Domain  
authentication.  
Domain Authentication  
Domain authentication can only be used if the Content Server  
has been added to the domain. If you add the Content Server  
to an existing domain, you need to define a separate security  
policy for the server, otherwise the existing security policies  
may prevent the server from functioning correctly. Please  
contact your authorized TANDBERG reseller or partner for  
details of the recommended security policy settings.  
Choose LDAP. If you select LDAP  
authentication, details of the LDAP server  
used for authentication must be filled out  
in the fields below.  
Under Domain authentication, users with domain accounts  
and local users are able to log in. The local administrator  
account can be used to administer the server, or some  
domain users can be given administrative privileges.  
Please see below for more notes on LDAP  
authentication.  
LDAP Authentication  
LDAP authentication does not require the Content Server to  
be added to a domain.  
Before changing authentication from local to LDAP, the  
local administrator must add at least one LDAP user with  
administrative privileges to the Content Server. To do this,  
go to User Management > Add Users and enter at least one  
valid username in the Add Administrators section.  
Server Name. Enter the DNS name or IP  
address of your LDAP server. Only Microsoft  
Active Directory Server is supported for 2.0  
and 2.x versions of the Content Server.  
Under LDAP authentication local users cannot log in using the  
standard login method. However, the local administrator can  
log in by adding the following string: &rescue=true to the  
end of the Content Server URL of the browser:  
Example:  
http://<ContentServerIPaddress>/tcs/  
?page=login&rescue=true  
Server Port. e.g. 389  
Hit the Enter key on your keyboard and log in with the local  
administrator account in the resulting pop-up window.  
While it is possible for the local administrator to login using  
this method, it is more convenient to give an LDAP user  
account administrative privileges.

Authentication (II)  
Base DN. This is the search base which  
the Content Server uses to search for user  
records. The Content Server will search the  
object specified by the Base DN and any  
objects beneath it.  
User DN. This is the LDAP identifier of the account in your domain  
which the Content Server will use to identify the user who is trying  
to log in. This account must have read membership privileges, that  
is, privileges to retrieve users’ ‘memberOf’ attributes from Active  
Directory using LDAP. You can use an existing account or create a  
new special account with those privileges. This account does not  
need to be inside the search tree specified in Base DN.  
The Base DN (Distinguished name) is a unique  
name for this container. It consists of OU, CN,  
and DN components.  
The User DN (Distinguished name) is a unique name for this account.  
It consists of:  
Base DN examples: OU=employees,DC=com  
pany,DC=com OU=marketing,OU=employees,  
DC=company,DC=com  
CN (Common Name) of the special account  
OU (Organizational Unit)  
In the examples above, OU ‘marketing’ is  
contained within the OU ‘employees’, so  
OU=employees,DC=company,DC=com  
will identify all employees of the company  
including the Marketing department, and  
OU=marketing,OU=employees,DC=company,  
DC=com will identify users from the Marketing  
department only.  
DC (Domain Object Class)  
User DN examples: CN=user_account,OU=employees,DC=company,  
DC=com CN=user_account,OU=marketing,DC=company,DC=com  
Please note that DNs can have many more than four parts.  
Password. Enter the password for the account identified  
above.  
Confirm Password. Enter the password again to verify that it  
was entered correctly.

More On Adding Users  
Adding Users Under Local Authentication  
Adding Users Manually  
Adding Groups  
If Local authentication is selected in Site Settings, local users  
can log in to the Content Server.  
LDAP/Active Directory users need to be added manually  
through the Add Users page before they can log in if:  
Groups always need to be added manually through the Add  
Users page.  
Firstly, you need to ensure that local user accounts have been  
created on the Content Server. You can create local user  
accounts from the Windows Server administration site in the  
Administrator Settings menu.  
These users then need to be added to the Content Server  
database by entering their usernames on the Add Users page.  
Please note that adding local groups is not supported.  
LDAP/Active Directory groups must be entered in this format:  
@group.name  
Domain or LDAP authentication is selected in Site Settings,  
and  
Please note that although a group is added in this format,  
@group.name, both the group name and its base DN are  
displayed in the User Management page.  
When adding a group, all members of that group will be  
automatically added to the Content Server on login with  
the privileges you assigned to the group, if Domain or LDAP  
authentication is selected in Site Settings, and regardless of  
whether or not Allow Guest Access is selected in Site Settings.  
Allow Guest Access is selected in Site Settings.  
LDAP/Active Directory users must be entered in this format:  
user.name:Display Name(optional)  
Local usernames must be entered in this format:  
MACHINENAME\user.name:Display Name(optional)  
Adding Users Automatically  
If you add a group with Owner privileges, as members of that  
group log in to the Content Server, their accounts will be  
automatically created. The User Role next to their username in  
the User Management page will appear to be User, but they will  
have Owner privileges inherited from their group membership.  
If you want all members of the group to be Users or Owners,  
but some members of the group need administrative privileges,  
you can change the User Role for these members to Admin. The  
highest user role will be applied.  
All users with valid accounts on the Domain or LDAP server will  
be added automatically upon login if:  
Domain or LDAP authentication is selected in Site Settings  
and  
AddingUsersorGroupsUnderDomainorLDAPAuthentication  
When Domain or LDAP authentication is selected in Site  
Settings, LDAP/Active Directory users or groups can log in to  
the Content Server.  
Allow Guest Access is deselected in Site Settings.  
Users added automatically will only have privileges to view  
conferences they are authorized to view (their User Role will  
be User). Administrators can give users special privileges by  
changing their role to Owner or Administrator).  
Adding Users Correctly  
Users need to be added to the user  
database on the Content Server in  
order to log in. To add users. enter  
one username per line, or usernames  
separated by a semicolon.

rtsp://<servername>/<archivefoldername>.  
For on demand streaming, check Archive Enabled on the external server and set the On demand Output in the writer to ServerPush output.  
For streaming off a Gꢀ server, the live streaming path should be  
rtsp://<servername>/broadcast foldername and the on demand path should be rtsp://<servername>/<archivefoldername>.  
For on demand streaming, check Archive Enabled on the external server.

Editing, Duplicating or Creating a New Call Configuration  
About Editing  
The Call Configuration Editor Page  
This is very similar to the template  
editing described in the articles on  
Filename. The Filename uniquely identifies  
each call configuration file.  
System templates cannot be altered  
– instead they have to be duplicated  
and saved under a new name to allow  
changes to be made.  
Description. Use the Description field to  
provide a short description of your call  
configuration file  
Non-system templates, however, may  
be edited – these have the Edit link  
appended to them in the listing.  
H.ꢀꢁꢇ Capabilities Enabled. H.239 Ca-  
pabilities are enabled by default. If H.239  
Dual Video output is not required, this  
capability can be disabled.  
The Call Configuration Editor Page is  
shown here as it looks when New has  
been selected (see previous page for  
more on this).  
Supported Resolutions. Administrators can  
select the resolutions for acceptable H.239  
video input. For optimal performance, it is  
recommended that the maximum resolution  
be set to 800x600 or 640x480.  
Call Options. The supported call speeds  
and maximum time in call can be set for  
call configuration.  
Supported call speeds (kbps).  
The administrator can select the  
supported call speeds for calls from a  
range of options from 128 to 2048 Kbps.  
This determines the range of available  
conference bandwidths when a user dials  
out from the TANDBERG Content Server.  
Maximumtimeincall(mins). This feature  
will automatically end both incoming and  
outgoing calls when the call time exceeds  
the length of time specified in minutes. The  
default setting in the Full Call Configuration  
template is 0, which means that the call will  
never be automatically ended. The default  
value for new call configurations is ꢄ00.  
Advertised Codecs. The  
TANDBERG Content Server  
supports advertising of  
video and audio codecs as  
part of the capability set  
negotiation.  
Advertise video codecs. The  
administrator can enable  
advertising of video codecs  
for each call configuration  
by selecting the checkbox.  
Supported advertised codecs.  
Advertise audio codecs. The  
administrator can enable advertising of  
audio codecs for each call configuration  
by selecting the checkbox. Supported  
advertised codecs include G.711, G.722

About Alternate Storage  
The Alternate Storage Page  
Use this option to view where the media  
files are recorded. The default location  
is drive E: on your TANDBERG Content  
Server.  
You may change this location to store  
files on a NAS (Network Attached  
Storage) by using the TCS NAS Wizard.  
The TANDBERG Content Server version  
2.0 supports moving the media default  
location to Network Attached Storage  
IBM X Series hardware.  
Your NAS must be configured correctly  
for the process of moving media to the  
new storage location to be successful.  
The Content Server must be added  
to same domain as the NAS (see the  
article on Authentication for details on  
adding the Content Server to a domain).  
Choose or create an account in the  
domain under which IIS will run. This  
domain account needs to have both  
administrative rights on the Content  
Server and permissions over the NAS  
share.

Call Information  
Templates Determine Outputs!  
The Call Information Settings  
!
The recording type determines the output  
of your recorded call. The Record/Stream  
Type is associated with Transcoding  
calls. The Archive Type is associated with  
Archiving calls.  
Record/Stream. Choose  
a Recording Alias from the  
drop down list. Only one call  
at a time can be made using  
this (transcoding) option. If  
the Content Server is part  
of a cluster, the number of  
available transcoding calls  
will be dependent on how  
many Recorders there are in a  
cluster.  
Please note that all Windows Media  
calls are enabled for recording and  
live streaming by default, but it is the  
templates attached to the recording  
aliases that determine which live and on  
demand streaming options are turned  
on for a particular call. Choosing the  
Record/Stream type may result in a call  
which is available on demand only, and  
choosing the Archive option may result  
in content which is streamed live!  
Archive. Choose a Recording  
Alias from the drop down list.  
There are four concurrent calls  
that can be made using this  
(archiving) option.  
If the Content Server is part  
of a cluster, the number  
of available archiving calls  
available will be dependent on  
how many Recorders there are  
in a cluster.  
Address. Enter the Address of  
the endpoint you are calling.  
The address can be in the  
format of an IP Address,  
H.323 ID or E.164 alias.  
H.323 ID and E.164 alias  
dialling requires a gatekeeper.  
Speed. Choose the call rate  
from the drop-down menu.

Recording Ad Hoc Calls  
Dialling in  
Recording in Progress Is Indicated on the Endpoint  
When the Template Used Has No File Output Specified  
Users can record their calls by dialling  
in to the Content Server from H.323  
devices.  
Once connection to the Content Server has been established, a poster will  
be displayed at the endpoint.  
A Streaming conference poster will be displayed if the Recording Alias  
uses a template with no File Output. For more information on configuring  
streaming and recording outputs, see the Template Editor section of the  
manual.  
A Recording conference poster will be displayed if the Recording Alias  
uses a template with File Output.  
It is possible to make calls by dialling:  
The Content Server IP Address  
– this feature does not require the  
Content Server to be registered to  
the Gatekeeper  
If the template has both File Output and Serverpush Output, the call will be  
streamed live and available for viewing on demand.  
If the template has only File Output, the call will not be streamed live, but  
will be available for on demand viewing. Calls made from endpoints to the  
Content Server begin recording once the call setup is complete and the  
Content Server begins receiving audio and video from the endpoint.  
The Content Server System Name or  
E.164 alias – this feature requires  
the Content Server to be registered  
to the Gatekeeper  
The H323 ID or E.164 alias of a  
Recording Alias – this requires the  
Content Server to be registered to  
the Gatekeeper.  
Concurrent Calls  
Depending on the installed option keys,  
up to 5 concurrent calls can be made.  
It is possible to make concurrent calls  
using the same Recording Alias for  
Archiving type calls, (or for Transcoding  
type calls, when Content Servers  
are in a cluster). In this case, all  
calls made on this alias will have the  
same properties (Conference Name,  
Access list, Recorded outputs, etc.).  
The recordings will have different  
conference URLs.

Using TMS to Schedule Calls  
Scheduling Calls with TMS  
It is possible to schedule calls to be recorded by the Content  
Server through TMS.  
For more information on TMS integration, refer to the TANDBERG  
Management Suite Administrator Guide or contact your  
TANDBERG representative or authorized reseller.  
Create a new alias under Conference Setup > Recording  
Alias Options > New: Name, e.g. TMS Archiving 1, Owner:  
api-admin  
In order to use TMS to book recordings on the Content Server,  
you need to:  
Select alias type (Transcoding or Archiving) depending on the  
option keys installed on the Content Server. For example, if  
you have one Transcoding option key installed, create one  
TMS transcoding type alias (TMS Transcoding 1). If you have  
four Archiving option keys installed, create four TMS archiving  
type aliases (TMS Archiving 1, TMS Archiving 2, TMS  
Archiving 3 and TMS Archiving 4)  
Enable the API in Content Server Site Settings > API  
Calls scheduled with TMS will appear on the View Conferences >  
Scheduled page (see the View Conferences chapter for details).  
Create dedicated TMS-only Recording Aliases. Only those  
aliases will be available for booking by TMS.  
TMS 11.6 is compatible with Content Server version 2.0.  
To create a TMS alias:  
Add a new user with the username api-admin under  
Administrator Settings > User Management > Add Users  
(Add Administrators field)  
Do NOT check the System Alias checkbox – TMS aliases  
must be Personal aliases.

Recording Alias Options  
About Recording Alias Options  
Recording Alias Options Available Depend on Your Privileges  
The default TANDBERG Content Server  
installation has one or two default  
System Aliases, depending on the type  
of option keys available.  
The Recording Alias Options are available from  
the Conference Setup Menu and only for Users  
with Administration or Owner privileges.  
By choosing the Recording Alias Options an  
administrator will see a screen like the one  
shown here.  
For Content Servers with both  
Transcoding and Archiving option keys,  
the two default aliases are:  
Windows Media Transcode  
Windows Media Archive.  
In this case, one call can be made with  
the default transcoding alias and up to  
four concurrent calls can be made with  
the default archiving alias.  
For the same aliases, an owner (a user with  
privileges to make calls) will see only their  
personal alias or aliases, if the administrator  
has set them up with owner privileges for an  
alias.  
Multiple concurrent calls can be made  
using both those aliases when Content  
Servers are in a Cluster.  
The Recording Alias determines:  
The call type – Transcoding or Archiving  
The outputs, based on the recording  
template and call configuration  
specified in the alias  
Access to the live and recorded  
Another owner (a user with privileges to  
make calls) may see no aliases at all, if the  
administrator has not set them up with owner  
privileges for an alias.  
conference  
Conference password (optional).  
All Conference Metadata, such as  
Conference Name, Description,  
Speaker, Location, Copyright and  
Category specified in the alias will be  
automatically applied to the conference  
and can be edited before the call is  
placed and also after the call has  
finished.  
Viewing Recording Aliases  
Calls made with the same alias will  
have the same default settings, but  
different conference URLs.  
Aliases can be sorted according to their column  
title in both ascending and descending order.  
The number of Aliases displayed on a page can  
be 10, 20, 50 or 100.  
Navigating between pages is consistent with  
the View Conference screens.

H.ꢁꢀꢁ ID. Choose a unique H.323  
ID for the Alias. If the Content Server  
is registered to the gatekeeper as  
Terminal, this alias can be used  
for dialling. If the Content Server  
is registered to the gatekeeper as  
Gateway, this alias needs to be used  
with a prefix specified in Site Settings.  
Transcoding vs Archiving. Recording  
aliases have two types – Transcoding  
and Archiving, which determine the type  
of call that can be made with that alias.  
A Transcoding alias can only be used  
for Transcoding calls, and an Archiving  
alias can only be used to make  
Archiving calls.  
System vs Personal. If you select the  
System Alias checkbox, the alias will  
be available for all users for dialling  
out from the Create Conference  
page. If you do not select the System  
alias checkbox, the Alias becomes  
a Personal alias, so it will only be  
available on the Create Conference  
page to the Owner of that Alias.  
E.1ꢄꢂ Alias. Choose a unique  
E.164 Alias. If the Content Server  
is registered to the gatekeeper as

for dialling. If the Content Server  
is registered to the gatekeeper as

Adding and Moving Markers  
About Markers  
Adding Markers  
A Marker is a position in the conference  
that is linked to an Index point, an  
Image or both. When playing the  
conference, clicking on an Index point  
will forward the movie to that Marker  
location. When the movie reaches a  
Marker that has an image attached,  
the image will be displayed in the  
Presentation tab of the viewer.  
Adding markers into the timeline is done by clicking the Add Marker  
button while the clip is playing. A small inverted triangle at the  
centre point of the scrub-bar in the timeline will be added to indicate  
the position of the added marker.  
This will also add a marker within the Markers tab positioned in time  
order, with Add Image and Add Index buttons available.  
At this stage, the markers make no difference to the users watching  
the conference as there is nothing attached to them.  
Conference markers are displayed when  
the Markers tab is clicked. Markers can  
be selected from the markers tab list  
one at a time.  
To select a marker in the Content  
Editor, click on:  
the marker’s select box or  
the marker number or  
the marker time  
When a marker is selected from the list,  
an orange rectangle will display around  
the marker’s number, timecode, image  
and index. A small inverted triangle  
will be shown in the timeline of the  
controller to mark the position of the  
marker in the conference.  
Moving Existing Markers  
There are two ways of doing this; by editing the timecode or by  
dragging the marker.  
Editing the TIMECODE of the marker:  
Change the time (format is hh:mm:ss.000) in the time field and  
press enter. The marker in the timeline will move to the new  
location.  
By dragging the marker:  
The marker in the timeline can also be dragged to its new position  
and the timecode will also change. The marker will be displayed in  
the timeline when the corresponding timecode is selected as in the  
screen shot below.  
Times entered as seconds will be converted.  
Example: 65 will be converted to 00:01:05.000.

Importing Conferences  
About Importing Conferences  
Outputs Must Be Identical to Allow Import  
Use the Import option to join and  
then edit two different conferences  
on your TANDBERG Content Server  
into one.  
In this example,  
when editing the first  
conference, the next  
two only from the list  
can be imported into the  
conference because they  
are both Windows Media  
files and both have a  
128K and a 384K stream  
and the user can edit each  
conference.  
Importing can only be done if the  
outputs of each conference are the  
same.  
Importing Another Conference  
Select the conferences  
that you want to Import and  
click the Perform Import  
button.  
The resulting conference  
will be imported into the  
Content Editor.  
With each clip the editor  
can do the following:  
Change the In and Out  
points  
Import images  
Create markers  
Attach images to markers  
Attach index pointes to  
markers.  
The resulting conference  
will play each clip one  
after each other in the

If you go to a Live Conferences view in the Content Library and Recording in Progress  
message is displayed instead of links to movies, that means that the template that the

QuickTime format content, which can only be viewed on demand from the Content Server.  
QuickTime format content can be viewed live, if streamed from an external streaming server.  
Call State: Not in call  
Your call has not been connected. This could be

Zune™ and the TANDBERG Content Server  
About Zune™  
Recording Aliases  
Zune™ is Microsoft’s new player for music, pictures and video.  
We recommend that a  
Zune Recording Alias is  
created for each Template  
and named similar to the  
Templates for ease of use,  
like the example shown here.  
The TANDBERG Content Server can save recorded conferences  
in the correct format to be downloaded and synchronised with  
your zune™ for playback. This appendix explains how to do this.  
Zune Templates  
There are 4 Zune Templates set up and ready to use  
on the TANDBERG Content Server:  
A template can be  
a combination of a  
number of outputs  
Zune Audio – Creates an audio presentation only  
so a recorded conference  
can include media for the  
Zune player as well as media  
streaming from the TCS  
interface. The Administrator  
will have to create custom  
templates if they are required.  
Zune Presentation – Video from Presentation  
Source (usually H.239 – computer source)  
Zune Presentation with PiP – Video from both  
Presentation (full screen) and Camera Source  
(small picture in top right of screen)  
Zune Video – Video from normal source (usually  
camera)

Zune(AUD) indicates an audio-only file and zune indicates a video file (with the  
associated audio stream).  
Save the zune file into the folder in your Zune  
Library to synchronise it to your Zune device.  
Connect your Zune player to your Personal Computer and  
it will either automatically synchronise with your selected  
folders or if synchronisation is turned off, you can drag the  
video files to your Zune from the “My Videos” folder as  
shown below.  
Click the Start Sync option in Zune to sync your Video and Zune player.  
Zune is initially synchronised with the comput-

Now the Video from the TANDBERG Content Server is on the Zune ready to play. Use the Zune menu system to find the TANDBERG  
conference to play on your Zune.
