Installing Plug-Ins Manually
If a plug-in does not appear in the Plug-Ins to Install list, it
may not have a fully compatible VENUE installer and must be
manually installed. This is required the first time you install
the plug-in, and whenever you need to re-install a plug-in
(such as after using the System Restore CD to update or reset
the system).
To install a plug-in manually:
1 Make sure all sound systems are shut down or muted.
2 Insert the plug-in installer disc into the CD-ROM drive.
3 Go to the Options page and click the System tab.
4 Hold the Ctrl key and click Shutdown Console on-screen. Fol-
low on-screen directions to exit to the Desktop.
5 Copy the plug-in installer to the partition named User Data.
6 Launch the plug-in installer application and follow any
on-screen directions. If prompted, do not restart the system
from a plug-in installer. (Doing so will not harm the system,
but will take longer, especially if you have multiple plug-ins to
install manually.)
7 Quit the installer application and eject the installer disc.
8 Click the Return to D-Show shortcut on the desktop to
re-launch the VENUE D-Show software.
9 Go to the Options page and click the Plug-Ins tab. Verify that
the manually installed plug-in appears in the Console list of
available plug-ins.
