Configuring a New Local Lineup

In addition to allowing management of HMP systems, Play Pro also allows playback from non-HMP sources. If you do not have an HMP system to playback content from or if you wish to use Play Pro in standalone mode, you can manually add local lineups (also known as "standalone mode").

Tip

For help setting up and watching SRT streams, Haivision has created Playmaker, a free online tool for configuring and sharing SRT Caller mode URLs and QR codes.

To add a new local lineup:

  1. From the Home screen, tap Configure your Services. The Set up Services screen opens.
  2. Select Add Services.
