The Cinegy Route Directory Service holds the details of all registered SD, HD and UHD network streams generated by satellite downlinks, playout devices and other network sources. Sources from streams can be discovered, registered, previewed and organized into secure logical virtual groups via Route Manager. Only users, being granted the "visible" privilege through explicit or group membership, can see streams existing in the management tree, thus reducing clutter and unauthorized access.

All the available streams can be registered by the Cinegy Route Directory Service. This service can be installed on any dedicated PC via the Cinegy Route setup wizard and used by all ingest and playout stations, as well as by Cinegy Multiviewer.

The Cinegy Route Directory Service is installed as a Windows service.

The service can be started either manually by running the ChannelDirectory.exe file from the Cinegy Route installation folder or automatically after a PC restart.
