This is the home page for virage_viewer, a Quicktime viewer for archived Virage presentations. It is written using Perl and HTML::Mason, and accesses the Virage database directly, so it must be installed on the actual server that runs the database.

The source is a tar gzip compressed tarball: virage_viewer-1.0beta.tgz

Firewalls

In order to receive the video streams, your firewall needs to allow incoming traffic for the proper RTSP services. Technically, allow the following:

  1. Incoming TCP traffic on port 554
  2. Incoming UDP traffic on ports 6970-6999

The default Max OSX firewall should work OK. If you have customized your firewall using the Mac OS X firewall command ipfw (available in the terminal app), you need to add these rules (repace 192.168.1.1 with your IP):

 oip=192.168.1.1
ipfw add allow tcp from any to $oip 554 setup
ipfw add allow udp from any 1-65535 to any \
 6970-6999 via en0

Windows XP w/SP2 will automaticaly ask you if you want to unblock the video, so it should be pretty easy to set up.
