After the folder is created, the configuration file must be created. The config.ini file
contains the location of the room list XML file. The file contains two items: the section
Crestron and the key XMLPath. An example of a config.ini file is shown below.
[Crestron]
XMLPath=M:\config\airmedia\room_list.xml
When the AirMedia application starts, it attempts to read the file at the location
specified by the XMLPath. Note the following when specifying an XML path:
• Local and network paths are allowed.
• Do not enclose the path in quotes.
• Environmental variables are not supported.
• When updates are necessary, a change to this file either by administering the file
locally or on the network will quickly allow users access to the available AirMedia
rooms.
Room List (XML File) for Windows and macOS
The room list file is an XML file that defines the devices and their connection parameters.
