It would be required to trigger the DVBAnalyzer software via Dataminer.
It is possible to start the DVBAnalyzer with command line parameters (please see below). This can be used to automatically start analyzing on a specific input. Can the Generic Powershell connector control the DVBControl DVBAnalyzer software in this way?
Supported commandos:
-device [File|UDP]
UDP:
Parameters:
-adapterindex (Network Adapter Index)
-bindaddress
-bindport
-igmpaddress (optional)
-igmpport (optional)
Example UDP Input:
dvbcontrol.exe -device UDP -adapterindex 2 -bindaddress=239.10.20.30 -bindport 2000
File:
Parameters:
-filename
-looped (optional)
-fixedbitrate (optional)
Example File Input:
-device File -filename E:\Test.ts -looped 1 -fixedbitate 1000000
Hi Jordy,
The Generic Powershell connector is designed to perform two different types of process spawn:
- Local (No hostname specified):
In this case, the PowerShell command is executed through the command prompt (cmd.exe), meaning that the command to execute should be specified as a regular prompt command (e.g. “C:\Program Files\Example\your_executable.exe” arg1 arg2) - Remote (Valid hostname is specified):
In this case the command to be executed is passed directly to Powershell application, meaning that the command should follow the Powershel structure (e.g. Start-Process -FilePath “C:\Path\To\Your\Executable.exe” -ArgumentList “arg1”, “arg2 -NoNewWindow -Wait )
Therefore, in order to execute the DVBAnalyzer software, one of the following process spawns should be followed, dependeing on whether it’s being executed locally of remotely.
Please let me know if this was sufficient to cover the presented scenario.
Hi Jordy,
The ‘Generic PowerShell’ connector can be used to execute powershell commands in the DMA where the element is running and remotely. Another option is to execute this powershell command through an automation script.
Hope it helps.
