4.4.6.2 Configuring Specific File Placement Locations
You can specify different locations for differing video renditions based on the media format. Three media categories are available to define physical and URL roots for
different formats:
■
WinMedia
■
DarwinMedia
■
HelixMedia These category names serve as labels only, and any format can be grouped under any
category label. In order to specify different locations for different formats, you must edit the
intradoc.cfg files for both Inbound Refinery and Content Server to:
■
enable a category
■
specify the formats handled by the category
■
set the physical root specific to the category For Content Server only:
■
set the URL root specific to the category
To set a different location for a specific format, do the following steps:
1. Open the intradoc.cfg file for each Inbound Refinery connection accessing the
shared directories in a standard text editor. The intradoc.cfg file is located in the connection directory of an Inbound Refinery installation. For example:
DomainDir ucmibrbinintradoc.cfg
2. Enable a category by setting the appropriate variable equal to true. For example,
the following variable may be set: WinMediaSupportEnabled=true
DarwinMediaSupportEnabled=true HelixMediaSupportEnabled=true
3. Set the format of the media handled by the category by setting the appropriate
variable equal to the format extension. For example: WinMediaFormats=wm|asf|asx
Note that each format is separated by a pipe |, and that an asterisk can be used as a wildcard.
The following variables may be set, and must match the enabled category or categories:
■
WinMediaFormats
■
DarwinMediaServerFormats
■
HelixMediaServerFormats
4. Set the physical root for the media handled by the category by setting the
appropriate variable equal to the physical path. For example:
Note: Both Content Server and Inbound Refinery must have physical
access to the placement locations.

HelixMediaPhysicalRoot=\\\\NetworkIdentityRealMedia The following variables may be set, and must match the enabled category or
categories:
■
WinMediaPhysicalRoot
■
DarwinMediaPhysicalRoot
■
HelixMediaPhysicalRoot
5.
Open the intradoc.cfg file for each Content Server connection accessing the shared directories in a standard text editor. The intradoc.cfg file is located in the
connection directory of a Content Server installation. For example:
DomainDir ucmcsbinintradoc.cfg
6.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 in the Content Server intradoc.cfg file.
7.
Also in the Content Server intradoc.cfg file, add one of the following variables based on the formats being rendered, and set it to the URL root path, including the
protocol, where the file can be accessed. For example:
HelixMediaUrlRoot=rtsp:NetworkIdentity:554 The following variables may be set, and must match the enabled category or
categories:
■
WinMediaUrlRoot
■
DarwinMediaUrlRoot
■
HelixMediaUrlRoot
8.
Save changes and close the intradoc.cfg file.
9.
Restart your managed servers.
