In order to setup the "remote access" shortcut in Media4Display, the remote access tool must first be retrieved on the concerned player.
You must then prepare a small script file that we be downloaded onto the media4display web console everytime the user wants to connect to a certain player.
This file is located in the <Media4Display Server system data folder>\System\<organisation> directory and must be called RemoteViewer.cmd
Typically the Media4Display Server system data folder directory is c:\Media4Display and in the case of an organization called oomnis the file will need to be set up at::
c:\Media4Display\System\oomnis\RemoteViewer.cmd
The content of this file should be
start "C:\Program Files\TeamViewer\Version8\TeamViewer.exe" -i %AliasStation=TeamViewerClientID%
|
For this to work, MediaContact needs to know the TeamViewerClientID as a player metadata (aka AliasStation).
It is possible to organize the automatic retrieval of the TeamViewerClientID from the player using the standard function of MediaContact.
For that, you need to go to MediaContact console, and for the organization you want go to User/device aliases
Right-click in the table to create a new station alias
Name: TeamViewerClientID
Category: Station Alias
→ Set "Retrieve the value on the server" to ON
→ Set "User the 32-bit environment of the registry for 64-bit machines" to ON
Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TeamViewer
Value: ClientID
After synchronizing the players, you will see you can retrieve the TeamViewer ID of the player by going into the Users/Device and checking the player "Station Alias" tab
