Generating the Channels File

Once you have finished all scheduling tasks, you should manually regenerate the channels file before proceeding to monitor your playlists in MCR mode. It is essential that the IP addresses for Remote Hosts have been properly configured per-channel in General Settings.

Regenerate channels.ini File

  1. From the main menu select the Tools option

  2. From the Tools menu click Generate Channels File. You are prompted to allow Viz Multichannel to overwrite the existing file.

  3. Click Yes.

The channels file is normally located in C:\ProgramData\Vizrt\Multichannel and is named channels.ini. It is a normal text file and can be manually edited.
