Setting up GV STRATUS in ENPS

The GV STRATUS application needs to be installed on ENPS client machines in order to use the GV STRATUS ActiveX within ENPS.

To set up GV STRATUS as ActiveX device in ENPS, you need to modify your ENPS configuration.

  1. On the ENPS server, find the enps.ini file and add the following to the [ENPS] section:
    QTMediaExtensions=.mov,.mp4
  2. On an ENPS client, log in as the administrator and start up ENPS.
  3. From the ENPS folder, select System Maintenance | MOS Configuration | New and create a new MOS entry with these parameters:
    ID The MOS ID; this value is case sensitive and must match the MOS ID configured in the XMOS Server Options.The recommended format is <family>.<machine>.<location>.<enterprise>.mos. Standard practice is to use station call letters for location and station group abbreviation for enterprise.
    Description GV STRATUS
    IP The IP address or host name of the machine hosting the SDB Server and the XMOS Server.
    ActiveX GV.STRATUS.1
    Default Settings Leave blank. These settings are configured during installation.
    Program The group ID that had been configured in System Maintenance | Groups.
    MOS Version 2.6 or 2.8.2
    Local DragDrop Off
    Auto Create On
    Story Send On
  4. From the ENPS folder, select System Maintenance | Global Configuration Options, add a new property named AddMOSObjDuration and set its value to 1.
    Note: AddMOSObjDuration is the optional setting that allows the duration of clips to be automatically included in the rundown timing. If you prefer to manually enter the duration of your story and clips, do not activate this setting.
  5. Add mp4 to the MOSBrowseMediaExtensions property, as can be seen below:
    MOSBrowseMediaExtensions=bmp,jpg,jpeg,mp4,3gp,wmv,wav,sdp,ts
  6. Restart the ENPS client application.
