Controlling transfers with VDCP

Remote control automation applications can initiate transfers via VDCP. The VDCP command must be sent to the K2 Summit system, not the K2 Media Server. This applies to both stand-alone and shared storage K2 Summit system.

If you are using VDCP to perform video network transfers, you must configure the K2 Summit system so that there is a unique Controller ID for each host.

If using VDCP to initiate transfers between K2 systems and Profile XP systems, you must send the VDCP command to the K2 system, not the Profile XP system. Transfers (both push and pull) are successful if the K2 system hosts the command. Transfers fail if the Profile XP system hosts the command.

Transfers initiated by VDCP between K2 systems and M-Series iVDRs are not supported.
