Superseded PTFs:
IY04847 Incorrect metafiles generated via iscpfsel
Incorrect metafiles are generated through the web page iscpfsel
cgi interface when the server has multiple interfaces to the
client. If the server selects an interface other than the default
one, and the IP address of the selected interface is longer
than the default IP address, the server address in the resulting
metafile is incorrect. For example: IP address 9.123.456.789
is longer (more characters) than 9.12.45.67
IY02909 Multicast QuickTime 4
Added support for multicasting QuickTime 4 videos

Unable to play assets from Video Search Results web page
when the asset name contains one or more of the characters
+ & # " %
Also the HTML is not coded to properly handle characters
< > & "
The proper way to encode special characters in a URL is to
use HEX encoding. Thus
test#name
should be
test#name
The HEX value for # is 23, + is 2B, & is 26, % is 25, < is 3C, > is 3E, " is 22
The proper way to encode special characters in a text string is to use
the symbolic name. Thus
test&name
should be
test&name
The symbolic name for & is & < is < > is > " is "
IX89703 Package VideoCharger Windows Player for AIX download
The NLV versions of the VideoCharger player need to be
packaged as an AIX PTF so that customers can download
once to their local AIX server and distribute further from there.
Also fixed the following:
- Temporary file used by the plugin is written to TEMP directory
- Fix for Multicast group leave support
This is Version 2.0.2 of the VideoCharger Player
