Using the Exchange

• Ensure that your computer's ClickView Library Manager can connect successfully with the ClickView Library Server. This is essential as the ClickView Exchange will utilise the ClickView Library's configuration to communicate with the ClickView Library Server.
• Ask your school network administrator to configure your internet gateway firewall to permit outgoing TCP/IP connections through Port 9054.
• Open the ClickView Exchange by opening the ClickView Library Manager, clicking on 'Tools' and choosing 'ClickView Exchange'.

Logging into the ClickView Exchange

In order to browse, search, download, and upload video content, you'll need to log-in by entering the supplied username, password, and IP address of the ClickView Exchange Server.

Once successfully logged-in to the ClickView Exchange, you'll be greeted with the following interface offering 3 panels of functionality located on the left-hand side of the screen:

• Search the ClickView Exchange

• Contribute to the ClickView Exchange

Download a Video from the ClickView Exchange

The simplest way to download any video from the ClickView Exchange is by selecting a subject category from the 'Browse the Clickview Exchange' panel and then double-clicking the video which you wish to download from the ClickView Exchange Server.

Select the folder path where you wish to temporarily store the downloaded ClickView video file prior to unpacking and importing into your school's ClickView Library Server. Then press 'Save'.

The video download process will now begin. Select the Transfers button in the lower left of your screen to display the currently downloading video. NOTE: The video download process can be paused by clicking the 'Pause' button on the transfers window.

Once the video download process is complete, click the 'Import' button to begin the process of unpacking and importing this new video into your school's ClickView Library Server, ready to be accessed by teachers and students using the ClickView Player.

Select the subject category from your ClickView Library which you'd like to import this video into. Then press 'Import'.

Once complete, the video is stored in the ClickView Library and ready for viewing.

Uploading a Video to the ClickView Exchange

A video must be first uploaded onto the ClickView Exchange Server before it is available to other schools for download.

To contribute a broadcast-recorded video onto the ClickView Exchange Server, you'll need to expand the 'Contribute to the ClickView Exchange' panel by clicking the header-bar located on the left-hand side of the interface. You'll see the subject categories located within your school's ClickView Library.

Select the category which contains the video which you'd like to contribute to the ClickView Exchange. Then locate and double-click the video intended for upload from the selected subject category.

You'll now be prompted to enter some extra information to assist ClickView Exchange users who wish to obtain the broadcast source of each video. Finally, for browsing purposes, you'll be asked to select the ClickView Exchange subject category or categories under which you'd like to store the contributed video. Then press 'OK' to begin the upload process.

The video will then be extracted from your school's ClickView Library Server and packaged (video files + resources + cover image + video details) into a single CLK file ready for transportation onto the ClickView Exchange Server.

You can monitor the progress of your upload by clicking the "Transfers" panel.

The contributed video will now be available on the ClickView Exchange, located under the intended subject category/categories.

If you wish to remove a video which you've contributed to the ClickView Exchange, simply right-click on the video and click 'Remove from the ClickView Exchange'. NOTE: A user will be permitted only to remove video which they contributed to the ClickView Exchange themselves.

Scheduling Uploads/Downloads to the ClickView Exchange

Uploads and Downloads can be scheduled to progress at a desired time. Once in the Transfers section, click on the Schedule button in the top right of the screen to set up schedules for uploading and downloading.
