Prerequisites for Cisco StadiumVision Director Localization

Before you begin configuring Cisco StadiumVision Director localization, be sure that the following requirements are met:

You are running a minimum of Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4.0-147 with a service pack installed that supports the desired locale.

For information about installing service pack upgrades for release 2.4, see the "Using the TUI Upgrade Utility to Update an Existing Release 2.4 Server" chapter of the Cisco StadiumVision Director Software Installation and Upgrade Guide, Release 2.4.

You have Cisco DMP 4310G models installed at your site.

The following are required if you plan to support localization of the IP phones with Cisco StadiumVision Director:

You have the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G models installed.

You are running Cisco Unified Call Manager (CUCM) version 7.1(5) or 8.5(1) on your IP phones. To support localization of the speed dial interface, you must be running CUCM version 8.5.


Note CUCM versions 7.1(5) and 8.5(1) are the tested versions for Cisco StadiumVision Director localization support.


You have an SFTP or FTP server reachable by CUCM for download of the locale software.

You have access to Cisco.com to download the corresponding locale installer version for CUCM.

The CUCMDBVer registry setting in the Cisco StadiumVision Director Management Dashboard must be configured to 7.0 or above.

To verify or change the setting, go to the Management Dashboard and select Tools > Advanced > Registry and find the CUCMDBVer registry in the Registry Data box.

Restrictions for Cisco StadiumVision Director Localization

When implementing Cisco StadiumVision Director localization, consider the following restrictions:

Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 supports internationalization and localization for the Cisco DMP 4310G only and the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G.

Right-to-left languages are not supported.

Cisco StadiumVision Director supports one system-wide locale and one per-suite locale.

You can only configure a locale that is installed.

Removing an installed locale causes Cisco StadiumVision Director to revert to the system locale. If the system locale is set to a removed locale, it will revert to the English (en_US) locale.

DMPs and IP phones can only support one locale at a time.

The CUCM locale and the Cisco StadiumVision Director luxury suite locale for an IP phone must be the same.

There is one global RSS feed. You cannot have RSS tickers in different languages on the same DMP.

Closed captions are not localized.

When supporting localization with the Video Distribution Manager (VDM), consider the following restrictions:

Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 allows the use of localized file names for external video content in MPEG 2 Transport Stream format (.M2T, .M2V or .MPG files) into the Video Distribution Manager (VDM).

Because the DMP does not directly support localized file names (file names with non-English characters), the Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 software implements an alias of the file name that can be used by the system. This alias can be seen for external content in the Content window of the Control Panel, where the file name appears localized, but the equivalent alias being used is shown within the URL.

The Bulk Administration Tool supports internationalization (i18n) for import/export of data, and for localization (L10n) of messages and headers.

Information About Cisco StadiumVision Director Localization

This section includes the following topics:

Internationalization (i18n)

Localization (L10n)

Software Support

Internationalization (i18n)

Internationalization (known as i18n) support refers to the software infrastructure that is designed to accommodate multiple language translations (localization) without requiring additional engineering changes to that software.

The Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 software supports i18n for the following general areas of the solution:

Control Panel in Cisco StadiumVision Director

Ability for the currently logged in user to set the preferred locale.

Dynamic Menu Board (DMB)Application

Menu item descriptions.

Pricing format selection either according to locale or without formatting.

Ability for the currently logged in user to the DMB application to set the preferred locale based on the installed language packs.

Management Dashboard in Cisco StadiumVision Director

Support for localization on the Management Dashboard for console messages and events, where translation is done at the client and not on the server.

Ability for the currently logged in user to set the preferred locale.

Ability to set the server system-wide locale based on the language packs installed with the Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 software.

IP Phone user interface

TV user interface

Localization (L10n)

Localization (known as L10n) refers to the implementation of the specific regional language translation support within a software interface that has been designed for i18n.


Note Infrastructure for L10n has been implemented in Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4.0-147 to support the future introduction of multiple locales. Certain locales are not supported in Release 2.4, such as right-to-left languages.


Software Support

In the initial release of Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 2.4 software (Release 2.4.0-147), English is the only supported (and default) language for the Cisco StadiumVision solution.

Support for other language translations are introduced as service packs when they become available. Service Pack 1 introduces the first locale support in Cisco StadiumVision Director for Spanish localization.

For more information about support for additional locales, see the Release Notes for Cisco StadiumVision Release 2.4.

How to Configure Cisco Unified IP Phone Localization


Note The CUCM user locale should be installed and applied before configuring the Cisco StadiumVision Director luxury suite locale. Without installing the CUCM user locale, the speed dial and softkeys will not be translated.


To configure Cisco Unified IP Phone localization, complete the following tasks:

Downloading the CUCM User Locale Software (required)

Installing the CUCM User Locale Software (required)

Downloading the CUCM User Locale Software

To download the CUCM user locale software, complete the following steps:


Step 1 Go to the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/navigator.html

Step 2 Navigate to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CallManager) site by selecting the following:

Products > Voice and Unified Communications > IP Telephony > Call Control > Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CallManager)
