How to run your application

There are two main ways of running an NCL application through NCL Composer user interface:

Running from a local Ginga-NCL installation

In order to configure NCL Composer to run from a local Ginga-NCL executable go to Menu: Edit→Preferences→Run Configuration.

The following screen will be shown:

In that screen, mark the option Local: Ginga Player and in the text box Command put the complete path to your Ginga-NCL executable.

In the text box Arguments the user can insert additional parameters to Ginga-NCL executable. Be careful, you must put each parameter in a different line.

Running from Ginga Virtual Set-top Box

In order to run your NCL Application in the Ginga Virtual Set-top Box you must choose the option: Remote: Ginga-NCL Virtual Set-top Box.

Usually the only parameter you will need to change is the IP address of the virtual machine that is running with Ginga-NCL Virtual Set-top Box. You should modify the other parameters only if you know exactly what you are doing.
