Passing args to: Cisco Telepresence Movi.msi

Hi -
I'm working with Movi 4.2 and am using the Cisco Telepresence Movi.msi because I'm creating my own installer.
I'm trying to pass these arguments to it for a silent install:
/quiet DOMAIN=transport-you.com EXTERNALVCS=transport-you.com HIDEADVANCEDLOGIN=1
The Movi_Administrator_Guide_4-2.pdf says I can set these properties but for some reason it's failing when I run it. Here's an example error msg:
The system cannot find the file DOMAIN=transport-you.com.
while executing
"::InstallJammer::actions::$component $this"
Error in action LaunchFile
What am I missing here?

Hi Mattew!
Use the .exe installer file provided in the zip file!
The MSI would be used if you want to build your own software package.

I can use the Cisco TelePresence Server MSE 8710 without VCS or CUCM

Hi all,
We are planning install Cisco TelePresence Server MSE 8710 for our customer.
we haven´t install this equipment, then we need know if is possible install the Cisco TelePresence Server MSE 8710 standalone, like a MCU, without a CUCM or VCS.
Regards,
GSilva

It should be possible to reach the device via ip for sip and h323 without a call control,
but as the TPS does not have an IVR this might not work out for the typical IP dialing target group.
Even if its a bit outdated (seems not to be EOL though), the 8510 MCU can be an option as the stand alone IP support might be better.
If you want to move to the TPS 8710 later you can migrate it later as well, its the same hardware.
It would be interesting to hear how the current deployment and setup looks
like and what benefits you see on deploying it without CUCM or VCS and how your requirements / use case are.
This here seems to be a special case, for new setups I would recommend to use CUCM, Conductor and TPS.

Tenaro,
Additionally here are the most common login issues. Unfortunately this includes items related to Presence implementation but I commented where we did not use these in our lab setup for CUCM Phone Capabilities only.
Login Issues
Problem:
Jabber Unable to Sign-in Through MRA
Solution
This can be caused by a number of things, a few of which are outlined below.
1. Collaboration Edge SRV record not created and/or port 8443 unreachable
For a jabber client to be able to login successfully using MRA, a specific collaboration edge SRV record must be created and accessible externally. When a jabber client is initially started it will make server DNS SRV queries:
_cisco-uds : this SRV record is used to determine if a CUCM server is available.
_cuplogin : this SRV record is used to determine if an IM&P server is available.
_collab-edge : this SRV record is used to determine if MRA is available.
If the jabber client is started and does not receive an SRV answer for _cisco-uds and _cuplogin, and does receive an answer for _collab-edge then it will use this answer to try to contact the Expressway-E listed in the SRV answer.
The _collab-edge SRV record should point to the FQDN of the Expressway-E using port 8443. If the _collab-edge SRV is not created, or is not externally available, or if it is available, but port 8443 is not reachable, then the jabber client will fail to login.
2.  Unacceptable or No Available Certificate on VCS Expressway
After the jabber client has received an answer for _collab-edge, it will then contact the expressway using TLS over port 8443 to try to retrieve the certificate from the expressway to setup TLS for communication between the jabber client and the expressway.
If the Expressway does not have a valid signed certificate that contains either the FQDN or domain of the Expressway, then this will fail and the jabber client will fail to login.
If this is occurring, the you should use the CSR tool on the Expressway, which will automatically include the FQDN of the expressway as a Subject Alternative Name.
MRA requires secure communication between the Expressway-C and Expressway-E, and between the Expressway-E and external endpoints.
Expressway-C Server Certificate Requirements:
The Chat Node Aliases configured on the IM&P servers. This is required if you are doing XMPP federation. The Expressway-C should automatically include these in the CSR provided that an IM&P server has already been discovered on the Expressway-C.
The names in FQDN format of all Phone Security Profiles in CUCM configured for TLS and used on devices configured for MRA. This allows for secure communication between the CUCM and Expressway-C for the devices using those Phone Security Profiles.
Expressway-E Server Certificate Requirements:
All domains configured for Unified Communications. This includes the domain of the Expressway-E and C, e-mail address domain configured for Jabber, and any presence domains.
The Chat Node Aliases configured on the IM&P servers. This is required if you are doing XMPP federation.
The MRA Deployment guide describes this in greater detail on pages 17-18. (http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/expressway/config_guide/X8-1/Mobile-Remote-Ac...
Note: In our lab for testing Phone Capabilities only, we did not include the Chat Node Aliases in the certificate as we were not using IM&P.
3.  No UDS Servers Found in Edge Config
After the Jabber client successfully establishes a secure connection with the Expressway-E, it will ask for its edge config. This edge config will contain the SRV records for _cuplogin and _cisco-uds. If these SRV records are not returned in the edge config, then the jabber client will not be able to proceed with trying to login.
To fix this, make sure that _cisco-uds and _cuplogin SRV records are created internally and resolvable by the Expressway-C
More information on the DNS SRV records can be found on page 10 of the MRA deployment guide for X8.1.1 (http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/expressway/config_guide/X8-1/Mobile-Remote-Access-via-Expressway-Deployment-Guide-X8-1-1.pdf)
Note: In our lab for testing Phone Capabilities only, we did not include the DNS SRV for _cuplogin.
4.  The Expressway-C logs will indicate the following error: XCP_JABBERD Detail="Unable to connect to host '%IP%', port 7400:(111) Connection refused"
If Expressway-E NIC is incorrectly configured, this can cause the XCP server to not be updated. If the Expressway-E meets the following criteria, then you will likely have this issue:
Using a single NIC
Advanced Networking Option Key is installed
Use Dual Network Interfaces option is set to “Yes”
To correct this problem, change the “Use Dual Network Interfaces” option to “No”
The reason this is a problem is because the Expressway-E will be listening for the XCP session on the wrong network interface, which will cause the connection to fail/timeout. The Expressway-E listens on TCP port 7400 for the XCP session. You can verify this by using the netstat command from the VCS as root.
Note: We used a Dual Network Interface Expressway for testing but were not using XCP, so this was not applicable to us.
5.  VCE-E Server hostname/domain name does not match what is configured in the _collab-edge SRV.
If the Expressway-E Server hostname/domain name does not match what was received in the _collab-edge SRV answer, the jabber client will not be able to communicate to the Expressway-E. The Jabber client uses the xmppEdgeServer/Address element in the get_edge_config response to establish the XMPP connection to the Expressway-E.
This is an example of what the xmppEdgeServer/Address would look like in the get_edge_config response from the Expressway-E to the Jabber client:
<xmppEdgeServer>
<server>
<address>ott-vcse1.vcx.cisco.com</address>
<tlsPort>5222</tlsPort>
</server>
</xmppEdgeServer>
To avoid this, make sure that the _collab-edge SRV record matches the Expressway-E hostname/domain name. Enhancement CSCuo83458 has been filed for this.
Note: This was one of our issues when we first setup. We adjusted our Expressway-E to insure the below:
System > Administration > System Name this was the FQDN
System > DNS > System Host Name was the host portion of the FQDN
System > DNS > Domain Name was the domain portion of the FQDN
System > Clustering > Cluster Name (FQDN for Provisioning) was the FQDN
6. Unable to log into certain IM&P servers. VCS logs say "No realm found for host cups-example.domain.com, check connect auth configuration"
From the Expressway-E, go to Configuration -> Unified Communications -> IM&P Servers. Open each server and click "Save" again. Not sure exactly why this happens.
Note: This was N/A to our test and can be ignored with Phone Capabilities only.
Thanks
Fred

Passing a variable from a movie clip to the main timeline

Hi,
I'm having trouble passing a variable from a movie clip in my
flash file to the main timeline.
I have a movieclip with the instance name IntroNav which
contains several buttons. Clicking a button sets the variable
"page" to a specific name, i.e. page = "home"
However, outside of the movie clip, on the main timeline I am
unable to call this variable, and "page" seems to have no value.
Can anyone tell me why this is and how to solve it?
Thanks

Umm, yes ... declare your variables correctly.
var page:String = new String(); //proper complete
var page:String; //strict typing
var page:String = "home"; //stirct typing with value
declaration
Do not declare the variable in your buttons, you would have
to do so in every button and be constantly resetting the value.
Declare it on the main timeline at the lowest level. You do not
need to use it as a _global, you just need to resolve your path
issues. You can 'set' the variable value from a button, without any
problem, but you have to call to the variable correctly.
You do not 'name' a variable as "_root.page" , the '_root'
refers to the lowest level of the SWF or the main timeline, as does
a call to ' _level0' (that's a zero). If the variable is declared
on the main timeline, and you're calling from the MC/button or
anywhere you can refer to the variable by calling to it by
the proper path of '_root.page'
To set the variable from any of your button/MC instances
call:
_root.page = "value"; OR _level0.page = "value";
But you must have the varibale declared on the main timeline,
and only once and the playhead should be stopped or it will reset
the value to the default upon looping.

Any ways to receive calls only from address book on Cisco Telepresence SX20?

I have been receiving numerous unknown calls on my conference call device and I would like to know if there are any ways to block these calls or even possibly only receive calls on the address book.

and i want to build Video Converence system over the WAN.
please to tell me if that integration is possible and what is the design components that is required for such project to be handled from A- to Z.
Regards,

I have been told that i need to use SIP protocol API instead of TAPI to have a TRUE VOIP Windows solution.
Could you guys please tell me the difference between SIP API and TAPI?
And could you please suggest a way which API (SPI or TAPI) the OnCast solution is based on (http://www.litescape.com/oncastsoftware.html) - we have to develop something similar.
Thank you for your replies,
Alexey

I have Cisco TelePresence SX10 and content sharing is not working when I am dialing through the bridge

I have Cisco TelePresence SX10 and content sharing is not working when I am dialing through the bridge, I can share the content if I drag and drop from RMX, but if schedule the call in Resource manager or manually dial in from device the content is not going to other hand, I have tried to turn off encryption as well but still same issue. can you please help me out with this. I am from Lion co and purchased sx 10 recently.
regards
Hemang

Can you please provide us with a little more information on your systems and configuration / topology, such as, what call control are you using (Cisco VCS, CUCM, other?). what type of "Bridge" are you using (is this a Cisco MCU, or Cisco TelePresence Server, or other device?), what versions of the software are on each of the devices, etc. The more information we have about your environment will help us assist you better. But saying that, if all your core equipment isn't Cisco, you may have more luck in the forums for the manufacturer of such equipment (ie Polycom's Support Community).

What is the difference between MCU & Cisco TelePresence Server?

Hello Pros,,
I would like an answer for this question "What is the difference between MCU & Cisco TelePresence Server?" to help us find a solution that best fits our requirements .
also I would appreciate it if you refer to a document that directly discusses the difference in a straight-forward manner.
Thanks for taking the time trying to help ,,

Nothing much has changed on the MCU side, it still has the same feature set really. Only things that are notable that have changed is the addition of ClearPath and encryption for SIP calls are the two biggest features in the latest release, don't expect any large features for the MCU as Cisco works to leverage everyone to migrate to the TelePresence Server as most of the MCU product line can be migrated to a TelePresence Server and that is where the most active development is.
Recent MCU changes can be seen in the MCU 4.5 Release Notes.
Recent TelePresence Server changes can be seen in the TPS 4.0 Release Notes and TPS 4.1 Release Notes.
In the most recent TPS 4.1 release, which came out last month, no MCU features were added because they were focusing most if not all the development on scheduling with TMS and Conductor, and to improve the existing TPS features already in place.

Cisco TelePresence Content Server not transcoding

Recently I discovered that the transcoding engine is not responding in my Cisco TelePresence Content Server. I have tried to restart the windows service and the whole machine with no luck. It will record but not create any outputs that are viewable. I do not have maintenance on this so I decided to post here to get some help.

They all appear to be online.

Cisco TelePresence Content Server's server mode is stuck in "Configuration reload, Offline"

My Cisco TelePresence Content Server's server mode is stuck in "Configuration reload, Offline"
I can't dial in or dial out.
I tried to restart Content Service
And I tried to reload the server but I cannot resolve this problem.
Are there people having a idea to resolve it?
Thank you.

Hi,
You can check the content engine logs in E:/Logs to find what exact error you are seeing there. If it is indeed complaining about the checksum verification failing, you need to contact Cisco support to get it. You need to provide the serial number and the LAN 1 mac address in the support ticket.
You can verify the Windows registries to check if it contains the checksum or not. The location of the registry is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > TANDBERG > TCS.

Cisco TelePresence - more detailed specs and questions

Hello,
I am currently conducting a light research into various video-conferencing systems and would love to know a little more about Cisco TelePresence video-collaboration solutions.
I have read the on-line publications made available by Cisco, but have a few remaining questions.
Following is the list of such questions, should you find yourself being able to answer any of them - please do net hesitate to do so:
Q. What is the frame rate of a 1080p video stream when it is being transmitted at no greater than 5Mbps bandwidth consumption?
Q. What is the maximum possible frame rate for a 1080p video stream?
Q. Given the 5 Mbps bandwidth consumption limits, what is the latency (without taking into account the underlying network latency) to encode and then decode the 1080p video stream at 25 fps?
Q. For the purposes of subjective visual evaluation - are there any downloadable images such as a single frame (1:1 screen-shot) of the 1080p video stream transmitted at 5Mbps and 25FPS?
Q. Security-wise ? what kind of encryption (if any) is being used to encrypt the video streams and how interoperable such encryption systems happen to be? For instance, are the encryption keys communicated in accordance with certain protocol/standard or is the process specific to Cisco products?
Q. Has anyone (formally or otherwise) tried to interoperate Cisco Telepresence with other video-streaming solutions (e.g. Conference-XP, VLC, etc.)? If, so what were the results?
Q. Do Cisco Telepresence systems support multicast traffic (e.g. one source / many recipients idiom).
Kind regards, Leon Zadorin.

also, just have 1 more question:
Q. In case if someone (i.e. a 3rd party software developer) was prepared to integrate their own video-streaming solutions (e.g. VLC, Conference XP, AccessGrid, etc.) with Cisco's Telepresence systems - is / will be there any way to obtain necessary technical documents regarding the functionality of Telepresence systems in order to achieve the desired interoperability?
To start with, such interoperability would be done at the very "basic" level: e.g. being able to see Telepresence's video streams in say VLC or AccessGrid or some other system and then may be being able to transmit video streams from VLC or similar in a format that allows Telepresence system to see the 3rd party content.

Passing variables to loaded external movie

Ok, this problem has beaten me for the last 2 days. It seems
to be extremely simple, I am on main movie and I am using
MovieClipLoader class to load external movie callMe.swf into movie
holder called holder_MC, then from main using onLoadInit or
onLoadProgress listeners I can target dynamic text inside
callMe.swf as holder_MC.myTXT.text = "blablabla" or I can change
frames in callMe.swf by holder_MC.gotoAndStop(5). But HOW TO PASS
VARIABLE myVar to callMe.swf so it executes something there? Using
holder_MC.myVar DOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for any help,
Zbynek

UPDATE... I copied the link to another page with my variables in the image attributes as I posted above. And it works using the values that are cached for those items. Is there any way to do this on the same page as my original link without my users having to change to a different page?
