designed to provide superb video and audio experiences.

Using an external storage device of a capacity to suit

your requirements, large libraries of DVDs and CDs can

be stored and replayed at the touch of a button.

All movies and music are accessed via intuitive screens, the lists being presented in a variety of ways to match the way you prefer to choose what to see and listen to.

Additional information about your movies and music can be automatically downloaded from the internet to enhance your watching and listening experience, and media displays can be presented using this data.

As well as the obvious lists, like album name, artist or track, CDs can be presented by cover art, by genre or era,

and movies can be presented by director or rating. You

can display all your movies’ cover art, and use that when you want to play something, if that’s what you like.

When choosing music, you can set up playlists to group your albums to suit your mood. Put all your mediæval church music in one list in the order you like to hear it. Or create a heavy metal playlist, and play it back in randomised order. Build a list of pop classics to play when you throw a party, or add classical instrumental

pieces to a list designed to play quietly in the

background for a dinner party.

Whatever you want to play, your MS1 is bound to please!

Conguring the Remote to Control your

Television

Press the • TV and OSelect keys simultaneously; hold them down for 1 second.

The TV key will remain lit for 20 seconds; the

conguration process must be completed during this

time.

Enter the 3 digit numeric code matching the • manufacturer of your television from the list in Remote Control Codes on page 41.

Press the • TV button again.

The TV key will blink twice to indicate that the conguration has been accepted. If the TV key does not blink, begin the process again, taking care to enter the number exactly as printed in the list. If the television is

switched on during the conguration process, entering

the correct code will cause the television to go into standby.

To congure the remote to control your amplier, follow

the above procedure, pressing the AMP key in place of the TV key, and using the appropriate numeric code for

your amplier.

REMOTE CONTROL USE IN A MULTIROOM SYSTEM

Your MediaServer remote control can be congured so

that every button press indicates to the system which output is to be controlled. This means that whenever infrared is received by the MediaServer the TV display will automatically switch to controlling the appropriate output.

Conguring the Remote with a Default Output

Press the • Audio Server and OSelect keys simultaneously; hold them down for 1 second.

The Audio Server key will remain lit for 20 seconds; the

conguration process must be completed during this

time.

Enter the 3 digit code corresponding to the output •

you would like to control (valid congurations are

listed in Appendix A). For example, to set output 2 as your default output press:

0, 0, 2

Press the • Audio Server button again.

The Audio Server button will blink twice to indicate

that the conguration has been accepted. If the Audio Server button does not blink twice begin the process

again, taking care to enter the number correctly.

Pressing any navigation key on the remote should now cause the MediaServer to switch to the correct output. The remote control can still be used to control a different output in the normal way; pressing the Home Output key will return it to controlling the default output.

USING THE REMOTE TO QUICKLY FIND WHAT YOU WANT

Scrolling

If you have a lot of media, nding the particular item

you want can be tedious so we’ve introduced the concept of SpeedScrolling.

When presented with a list of items, if you press • the U or V keys on the remote control, initially the highlight will scroll fairly slowly up or down.

If you keep the button pressed, the list will switch to • scrolling a page at a time.

Continue to keep it pressed, and the list will change • to an alphabet, and the highlight will scroll through that. This alphabet represents the initial letters of the items in the list.

Once you’ve selected a letter, you can use the slow-• then-fast scrolling to move through the list of all the items that start with that letter.

Scrolling in the Admin User Interface

When navigating a list in the Admin User Interface you can use any of several methods.

Use the • item at a time.

To turn it back on, switch the single power button on the rear of the unit off and then back on again. Note that there are three power switches on the rear of the unit. The one concerned in this case is on the left rear of the unit as you look from the front. The other two control the two individual power supply units, and must not be touched.

The second way is by using your browser.

Enter the Admin IP address into the address panel • of your browser in the format http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Note that the XiVASafe unit has 2 IP addresses, one for Admin purposes and one for your MediaServer to access the libraries. When shutting down the XiVASafe unit, you should use the Admin IP address.

Click Maintenance in the left-hand panel. You will •

be prompted to log in. The username is admin and the password is en91n3.

Once you’re logged in, click Shutdown, and then •

Shutdown on the conrmation screen.

The XiVASafe unit will shut down. You should switch off

the main power switch on the rear of the unit once the lights on the front have all gone off.

XiVASafe Emergency Shutdown

If you really have to shutdown as quickly as possible, use

the single switch on the back of the unit. As you look at the front of the XiVASafe unit, this switch is at the left rear of the unit. This initiates a controlled shutdown in which any cached data is written to disk before the unit powers down.

The other two power switches each control one of the hot-swappable power supplies. They are simple on-off switches, and using them to power the unit down will cause any data held in memory to be lost.

MS1 MediaServer / MediaPlayer

USER INTERFACES

Your MS1 MediaServer / Client can play high quality audio or video from a networked external storage device or from its disc

slot. By combining a MediaServer with one or more Clients as shown below, you can direct different outputs to a number of channels, providing entertainment throughout your home.

With unlimited external storage available, your MediaServer can store large libraries of DVDs and CDs, and play them back at the touch of a button. Simple, intuitive, on-screen menus guide you to lists of media presented in a logical and helpful manner.

Two separate video outputs allow you to watch a movie while still accessing the screens controlling the output. Note that this secondary, controlling display, shows the Admin User Interface only, and even though there is an Exit Admin button on the Main Menu, it doesn’t switch you to the TV User Interface.

GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES

The equipment is provided with an advanced graphical user interface, which can be displayed on televisions throughout

your home and controlled using the supplied remote control or a correctly-programmed third-party device such as a Philips Pronto™ or an iPhone™ or iTouch™ with Imerge Controller installed. In addition to the television user interface, the

equipment can also display especially constructed user interfaces on touch panel displays and computer screens. The user

interfaces are used to control the recording, cataloguing and playback of your music and movies.

The Video Screens

Your MediaServer has two video outputs (Digital and Analogue) through which a DVD can be played. Should you prefer, a

TV connected to the Analogue Out connections can be used to display the MediaServer’s TV User Interface in order to control output on the Digital Out connection.

THE REMOTE USER INTERFACE

Your MediaServer can display a user interface in the

Admin style on a computer connected to your home network. This user interface is known as the Remote User Interface.

The Remote User Interface gives you complete control of your MediaServer using a keyboard and mouse rather than the remote control. This can help make editing

items in the libraries easier and quicker and also allows

you to control your MediaServer from any computer running on your home network.

Accessing the Remote User Interface

Using a computer on the network, open your • browser and type the IP address or host name

of your MediaServer into the address bar (e.g. http://192.168.0.1 or http://<hostname>).

Navigating the Remote User Interface

You will notice that the Remote User Interface is the

same as the Admin User Interface, with the addition of some buttons. These buttons have been added to allow you to perform actions normally executed with the remote control, using a standard computer mouse.

When you rst connect to the Remote User Interface,

the Main Menu screen is displayed:

You will also notice that playback transport controls

are available on the left hand side of the Now Playing screen:

You can initiate and control playback from the Remote

User Interface using these controls.

Note: If you make any changes to the Connection Settings via the Remote User Interface, such as changing

the IP Address, you may need to reconnect using the new connection details.

The screens of the Remote User Interface are like those of the Admin User Interface with minor differences:

The •

and V buttons now appear wherever

there is a list that can be scrolled. You can use

your mouse to press these buttons when you would usually use the U and V buttons on the MediaServer remote control.

The functions of the main action keys on your • MediaServer remote control, such as JMenu,

Options, àLibrary and •Now Playing can be

accessed using buttons at the bottom of the screen.

When required to edit or enter text, the Remote •

User Interface will display the text entry screen just as the TV User Interface does. However, instead of using the alphanumeric keypad on your MediaServer remote control, you can use your computer keyboard to enter text and numbers.

CONTROL YOUR MS1 WITH YOUR iPhone™ OR iTouch™

You can control your MS1 using your iPhone™ or

iTouch™, using the Imerge Controller, which you can buy from Apple through the iTunes Store.

Simply search for Imerge Controller.

Download the application and install it on your iPhone or iTouch to give you instant control of your MS1 using your iPhone or iTouch.

Once installed, go to iPod Settings and choose Imerge Settings to insert the IP address of your MS1 and the Output Zone you want to control.

RECORDING

You can make new recordings onto the MediaServer’s

external storage device by recording directly from CDs and DVDs, using the disc slot.

Your MS1 can access the internet, using a broadband

internet connection, to automatically retrieve information about the disc. CD information, such as artist, album, track names and CD cover illustrations, and DVD information, such as movie rating, director and chapter titles are automatically downloaded and saved.

Note: In some countries the copying of material

protected by copyright law may require permission of

the copyright owners.

The system will only record unencrypted DVDs.

AUDIO RECORDING QUALITY

The system allows you to record music and store it in a number of different formats:

MPEG-layer 3 (MP3)

You can record to MP3 at a number of different bit rates. Higher bitrates give better quality but take up more

space on your MediaServer’s external storage device. By default, the unit records music at 192Kb VBR MP3.

WAV (lossless uncompressed)

The WAV format is uncompressed, which gives the

highest possible quality, but takes up the most space.

Windows Media Audio (WMA)

WMA is a compression format similar to MP3. Again, the

higher the bitrate you choose, the better the quality and the larger the resultant music les.

RECORDING SETTINGS

The units can be congured so that CDs & DVDs can be

recorded with minimal user interaction.

Press the •

EDITING THE AUDIO LIBRARY

Your MediaServer labels the albums, artists and tracks

in your Audio Library with names which identify the track you are listening to, and these help you locate items when you are browsing through the Audio Library.

If you have an Internet connection, the unit looks up the CD information automatically from the Gracenote

Music Recognition Service. You can edit these names to

suit your own preferences.

If your MediaServer is on the same network as your home computer, you can use your web browser to access the Remote User Interface (see page 24) and edit the details using that. This has the advantage of allowing you to use your mouse and keyboard to perform the editing.

Once any of these details has been changed, the album will be ignored by the Look Up Album Details function, so your changes will be retained permanently.

All editing operations are similar, so for an example, we’ll discuss editing Album information.

Editing Album Information in the Audio Library

International Character Sets

Our user interfaces support a wide range of nonEuropean character sets, such as cyrillic and Chinese, when used in the metadata. However, editing text containing such characters can only be performed in the Admin and Remote User Interfaces.

Selecting Album Artwork

Your MediaServer stores a number of generic cover art

images that can be applied to albums in your Audio Library. You can also apply your own cover art or

artwork that has been downloaded from the Internet to any item in the Audio Library.

If you were throwing a party, for instance, you could make a playlist of all the music you might want to play, so that you don’t have to think about choosing music to play while the party is in full swing; your MS1 will just keep playing whatever you’ve added to the playlist.

To create a new playlist, rst add all the albums you

want to the Play Queue - scroll down the list of albums

and for each one you want to queue up, press the Add Album button.

Once you’ve built up your entire list, go back to the Now Playing screen and press the Show button, which will

display the list of albums in the Play Queue.

Delete any unwanted selections, then Press the Save Queue button to save the Play Queue as a playlist.

EDITING THE VIDEO LIBRARY

Your MediaServer labels the movies in your Video Library with names which identify the movie you are watching, and these help you locate items when you are browsing.

If you have an Internet connection, your MediaServer reads the DVD information automatically from the

Internet. You can edit these names at any stage to suit

your own preferences.

If your MediaServer is on the same network as your home computer, you can use your browser to access the Remote User Interface (see page 24) and edit the details using that. This has the advantage of allowing you to use your mouse and keyboard to perform the editing.

PARENTAL CONTROL

Parental Control is available on the MS1 and allows you to restrict the movies that can be played on any Output, based on the age rating of the movie.

Imerge has a large collection of movie ratings from around the world and has amalgamated them into a

single table (see next page) , which we use as the basis

for our Parental Control system.

All you need to do is decide which age to choose as the limit, and set your chosen Output to that age. After

that, only movies with ratings equivalent to that age or

less will be available on that Output.

Our simple system enables effortless implementation of global movie ratings.

SETTING UP PARENTAL CONTROL

Parental Control is congured on the unit that controls

the Output you’re restricting, whether server or client. On that unit, switch to the Admin User Interface and select Set Up, then Settings.

Highlight Enabled and press OSelect.

You will see that a new option, Restricted Age, has appeared at the bottom of the list of Output attributes.

This allows you to choose the age that will restrict the movies available on this Output. Highlight Restricted Age and press OSelect.

Highlight Output Conguration and press OSelect. On

the Output Conguration screen, press OSelect.

Highlight Parental Control and press OEdit.

Choose an age from the list and press OSelect.

Verify that your chosen age is displayed and press M Save.

From now on, only movies with a rating equivalent to

that age and below will be available for playback on this Output.

Unrated Videos

Any material which does not have a rating is automatically included in the highest category, age 25, which is not viewable with Parental Control enabled.

As some documentaries and educational material are unrated, this can exclude material that you think should be available.

If you want to permit viewing of unrated material on an Output subject to Parental Control, there are two possibilities.

Either

1. Edit the video details (see page 37)and change the rating to a suitable value to permit viewing on that Output.

2. Temporarily disable Parental Control

Connect your iPod in the normal way.•

Click the • Browse button in the top right-hand corner of the iTunes window.

Drag any item from the • Genre, Artist, Album lists onto the iPod icon in the Source area.

The transfer process will begin shortly afterwards.

Updating the iTunes Library

If you have removed music from your MediaServer or edited the names of any items in the library you will need to update the iTunes Library to remove any

broken links. To do this, you should rst delete all the

MediaServer albums from the iTunes Library as follows:

Select the • View Options item from the View menu.

Check the • Grouping option, then click the OK

button to conrm your changes.

In the iTunes • Library click the new Grouping column heading. The tracks located on your MediaServer external storage device will be grouped together using the label <-MediaServer_NAME (e.g. <-ImergeMS1-1234).

Click on the rst track in the list with this grouping •

label then, holding down the Shift key, click the last track.

Press the • Delete key to remove these tracks from the iTunes Library.

Click • Yes to conrm your choice.

Repeat the import process described above to add back the MediaServer information.

Transferring Music to your Portable Player using Windows Media Player on a PC

It is also possible to use your PC and Windows Media Player to transfer music from your MediaServer to your portable device.

Note: These instructions refer to Windows Media Player version 11. Whilst most versions are supported, the user interfaces may vary and therefore these instructions may not always be accurate.

Firstly, make sure you can navigate to your • MediaServer and view the music in your MusicShare folder.

Click on the • Library tab at the top of the screen to display the Library. Click on Library again to display the drop down menu.

Select • Add to Library, followed by Add. In the Add Folder window that appears navigate to your MediaServer on the network and select the

music you wish to transfer. You can transfer entire

albums, or all the music by a particular artist by selecting the relevant folder and clicking OK. To transfer the entire contents of your Audio Library, select the folder entitled MusicShare.

When the process is complete and all of your music • has been added, click on Close.

Once your Media Library has been updated with the music from your MediaServer you can update your portable player as follows:

Click the • Sync tab.

Drag any items you would like to copy from the • Library into the Sync List on the right hand side of the screen. To select all items in the Library, hold the Ctrl key and press the A key.

Click the • Start Sync button in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

The transfer process will begin shortly afterwards.

SOFTWARE UPDATES

As part of a policy of ongoing development, Imerge is constantly improving the system’s XiVA operating software. To allow you to take advantage of these improvements, the MS1 can download and install software updates via the Internet.

Note: You may want to contact your dealer or installer

before attempting a software update.

DIGITAL SAFE

XiVA Digital Safe allows you to use your robust Imerge

storage as the perfect backup location for all your les,

aiding data recovery in the event of your PC or Mac hard drive failing.

USING YOUR DIGITAL SAFE

Whichever XiVASafe storage unit, XS1e (1Tb), XS3i (3Tb) or XS6i (6Tb) you have attached to your MS1

MediaServer, you can use the storage as a Digital Safe, in

which to save copies of those les you need to secure.

Accessing it is exactly the same as transferring media to and from your MS1, as described on page 43. You’ll see a share called Digital Safe listed along with the other shares such as MusicShare and Import.

In a second Explorer (Finder) window, navigate to the les you want to save, then simply drag the individual les or groups of les across to your Digital Safe.

Alternatively, drag a whole folder hierarchy across and drop it into your Digial Safe. This has the obvious advantage that the organisation of your secure data is the same as that on your personal computer, so it’s much

easier to nd, should the worst happen.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

This section provides information to help solve common problems you may encounter with your system.

DISPLAY HELP

Although the unit’s video settings will be congured correctly when installed, it is possible that subsequent changes in your hardware conguration (for example, the installation of a new television) may affect the conguration and, in extreme circumstances, may cause

the user interface to be displayed incorrectly or not at all.

Display Help exists for this situation; so that the unit’s

video settings can be re-congured using the remote

control without reference to the user interface.

Accessing Display Help

Press the following combination of six keys on your remote control handset:

Menu , JMenu , 4 , 3 , 5 , 7

This key combination can be easily remembered as the alphanumeric keys 4, 3, 5, 7 correspond to the letters H, E, L, P, to spell the world help.

Depending on the nature of your conguration

problems, the user interface may display the Display Help screen:

USE WITH A DIGITAL PROJECTOR

If you connect the video output to a digital projector,

you may nd that projector congures itself in a way which conicts with the MS1 output. The output may

scroll rapidly with lots of short, white lines on a black background.

To avoid this, leave the projector powered down for about 20 seconds after the MS1 has been powered up. If the display is showing this kind of disruption now, just power the projector down and then back up again.

SURROUND SOUND

To take advantage of the MediaServer’s Surround Sound Audio Format, it is necessary to connect the audio output to a device capable of decoding the surround sound signal.

If your digital TV can decode the signal, simply • connect it to the HDMI socket on the back of the MediaServer.

If your digital TV does not decode the signal, noise • will be emitted by the TV’s speakers. In this case you should mute the TV’s volume and connect an

amplier with this capability to the digital output (16) of the MediaServer.

Note: If none of the above suggestions resolves your

conguration problem, please contact your dealer or

installer.

The options available via the Display Help screen are as follows:

Return to the Default Video Set-Up

If you are experiencing problems with video display on either output, try using this function to cure the problem.

Press the • 0 key on your remote control to return to the default video set-up.

This will cause the unit to restart with the video settings re-set to their default values.

BLANK DISPLAY

If you select an item from the media libraries for playback and the display goes blank, it may be due to a missing or invalid library item. In the event that this happens, try pressing the àLibrary key on the remote control to return to the user interface. If this does not resolve the problem, contact your dealer or installer.

MISSING AUDIO & VIDEO LIBRARIES

If the TV UI doesn’t appear on startup or if the Admin UI Main Menu doesn’t show the Audio and Video Libraries,

then either the MS1 is congured as a MediaPlayer or it

has not detected the XiVASafe external storage device.

There are occasions when it can take a few minutes to establish communication between the MS1 and a

XiVASafe external storage device, so in the rst instance,

it’s worth waiting for several minutes to see if the problem corrects itself.

If not, you should contact your dealer or installer.

WARNING MESSAGES

There are some occasions on which the system may display a warning message on the user interface.

Automatic Shutdown

The MS1 contains sensors that continually monitor its operating temperature. Should the temperature exceed its maximum safe operating temperature, an automatic shutdown will be initiated to prevent component

damage and subsequent data loss.

The user interface will display the following warning message:

When the countdown is complete, the unit will

about you as specied below in accordance with this Policy.

The XiVA™ Software Service Privacy Policy discloses our privacy practices and contains detailed information about exactly how your personal information will be treated:

Who are we?•

What information of yours do we collect?•

What do we do with the information we collect?•

Will Imerge share any of your personal information?•

How you can learn what personal information we have?•

What is the opt-out policy?•

Who are we?

Imerge Limited (Imerge) welcomes you as a XiVA™ Software user. We developed your home media appliance (your MediaServer) and it is ‘powered’ by our XiVA™ Software. Our company headquarters are located in Cambridge, United

Kingdom and full details of how you can contact us can be found at the end of this document. The provision of goods, services and information to you may also involve our business partners and other carefully selected third party companies.

What information of yours do we collect?

When you register with Imerge, we need certain information – such as your name, address, postcode, and telephone number or email address - in order to provide service to you. Once you register with Imerge you are not anonymous to us. By submitting your information you agree to the use of that information as set out in this Policy. We may also use that information to let you know of additional products and services about which you might be interested.

In addition to the information you voluntarily provide by registering, Imerge will also collect technical information from your MediaServer on a regular basis, so that, in the event that you contact technical support, we will have information available

to help diagnose technical issues. The le upload will take place no more frequently than once every seven days and will include the transfer of a number of small les pertaining to your

system’s performance. At no point will we gather any personal information, and the information we do gather will identify

you to Imerge only, through the unique serial number of your

MediaServer. This information will be stored on our secure server and will at no stage be made available to any third parties.

Please note that sending and receiving this information will necessitate sending small amounts of data over your internet connection. If you prefer to opt out of using this service, you can do so by altering the relevant setting in the software user interface.

What do we do with the information we collect?

We may use personal information collected about you to let you know about new goods, services or offers that you might

nd interesting; or functionality changes and enhancements to

the Service, i.e. feature upgrades; or changes to our terms and

conditions of use.

Will Imerge share any of your personal information?

Personal data will be collected, processed by Imerge and forwarded to the relevant Imerge Business Partner for the purpose of providing related services, as described earlier. However, Imerge will not trade, sell or rent your personal

information (such as name, address, phone number, or email address) to third parties world-wide for targeted services

or marketing purposes without your consent. And, we also protect your privacy by limiting employee access to the use of customer data. We may provide aggregate statistics about our sales, customers, music tastes, usage patterns and other site information to reputable third parties, but these statistics will not include any information that could personally identify you unless we have your consent.

Imerge reserves the right to access and disclose individually

identiable information to comply with applicable laws and lawful government requests, to operate its systems properly, or

9. Content providers are using the Microsoft digital rights management technology for Windows Media

distributed with this software (“WM-DRM”) to protect the integrity of their content (“Secure Content”) so

that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated. Portions of this software and other 3rd party applications use WM-DRM

to play Secure Content (“WM-DRM Software”). If the

WM-DRM Software’s security has been compromised,

owners of Secure Content (“Secure Content Owners”) may request that Microsoft revoke the WM-DRM

Software’s right to copy, display and/or play Secure Content. Revocation does not alter the WM-DRM Software’s ability to play unprotected content. A list of revoked WM-DRM Software is sent to your computer whenever you download a license for Secure Content from the Internet. Microsoft may, in conjunction with such license, also download revocation lists onto your computer on behalf of Secure Content Owners. Secure

Content Owners may also require you to upgrade some

of the WM-DRM components distributed with this

software (“WM-DRM Upgrades”) before accessing their

content. When you attempt to play such content, WMDRM Software built by Microsoft will notify you that

a WM-DRM Upgrade is required and then ask for your

consent before the WMDRM Upgrade is downloaded. Non-Microsoft WM-DRM Software may do the same. If you decline the upgrade, you will not be able to access

content that requires the WM-DRM Upgrade; however,

you will still be able to access unprotected content and

Secure Content that does not require the upgrade. WMDRM features that access the Internet, such as acquiring new licenses and/or performing a required WM-DRM

Upgrade, can be switched off. When these features are switched off, you will still be able to play Secure Content if you have a valid license for such content already stored on your computer.

OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE LICENCE AGREEMENT

Certain components of the software for the XiVA powered MediaServers are subject to the GNU General Public License or other so-called open source licenses

(“Open-Source Software”).

Open Source Software is not subject to the restrictions in

Section 6 (“Title to Software and Intellectual Property”), and is subject to the GNU General Public License (“GPL”)

or other license terms, as applicable.

In compliance with the terms of the GPL, XiVA makes its

modications to Open Source Software that the XiVA powered product uses, modies and distributes pursuant

to the GPL available to the public in source code form at http://www.imerge.co.uk/lgpl/taglibport.zip.

You are free to use, modify and distribute Open Source

Software that is subject to the GPL so long as you comply with the terms of the GPL available in the product manual or at www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

PREAMBLE

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software—to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any other

program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other

Free Software Foundation software is covered by the

GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can

apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to

distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can

get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that

you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or

can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you

legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software

is modied by someone else and passed on, we want

its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will

not reect on the original authors’ reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying,

distribution and modication follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either

verbatim or with modications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modication”.) Each

licensee is addressed as “you”.

Activities other than copying, distribution and

modication are not covered by this License; they are

outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the

Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the

Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the

Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program

a copy of this License along with the Program. You may

charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program

or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the

Program, and copy and distribute such modications or

work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modied les to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date

of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or

publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

c) If the modied program normally reads commands

interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is

no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty)

and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of

this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive

but does not normally print such an announcement, your

work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modied work as a whole. If identiable sections of that work are not

derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not

based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage

or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable

form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding

machinereadable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least

three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as

to the offer to distribute corresponding source code.

(This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial

distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in

accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form

of the work for making modications to it. For an

executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any

associated interface denition les, plus the scripts used

to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally

distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the

operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then

offering equivalent access to copy the source code from

the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the

Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you

have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying

or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License

to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically

receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these

terms and conditions. You may not impose any further

restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights

granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing

compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that

contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent

obligations, then as a consequence you may not

distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is

believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If

the Program species a version number of this License

which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF

CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE

KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,

REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY

AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED

ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE

USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING

BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING

RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU

OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO

OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
