RVMedia Install and Uninstall Instructions and Privacy Statement

Install and Uninstall Trial Versions of RVMedia Components

Install in Delphi and C++Builder

VCL version

RVMediaTrialSetupDelphi.exe contains trial files for Delphi and C++Builder. This is a recommended installer (installing DPK packages);
RVMediaTrialSetupCBuilder.exe contains trial files for C++Builder. This is an alternative installer (installing CBPROJ packages).

FireMonkey version

RVMediaFMXTrialSetupDelphi.exe contains trial files for Delphi and C++Builder. This is a recommended installer (installing DPK packages);
RVMediaFMXTrialSetupCBuilder.exe contains trial files for C++Builder. This is an alternative installer (installing CBPROJ packages).

Common Install Information

VCL and FireMonkey versions are independent. You can install them in the same RAD Studio IDE.

You can run both DPK and CBPROJ Setups, but you cannot install both DPK and CBPROJ packages in the same RAD Studio IDE (a package that is installed last uninstalls a previously installed package).

You can install both Delphi and C++Builder trials in the same folder, although it is not recommended.

Run the chosen installer and follow the displayed intructions.

Community edition of RAD Studio

Community edition of RAD Studio does not contain command line compilers, so RVMedia setups cannot create necessary package files.

After running setups, open packages (*.dproj files) in RAD Studio IDE one by one and compile/install them (right click the package name in the Project Manager, and choose "Compile" or "Install" depending on the package). It is important to compile all necessary packages for Windows 32-bit platform. Runtime packages may support more platforms, you can switch them and compile the package for each necessary platform.

The packages can be found in [RVMedia Dir]\Trial\ folder. For example, for VCL version for Delphi 10.4, compile [RVMedia Dir]\Trial\10_4\RVMediaD10_4.dproj and install RVMediaD10_4_Dsgn.dproj.

If you need detailed instructions for installing in Community Edition, feel free to contact us

Lazarus version

Due to Lazarus limitations, we cannot make a trial version for Lazarus. Only the full versions of our components can be installed in Lazarus.

Privacy Statement

RVMedia components

RVMedia components may send and receive data via the network. They do not send and receive any data other than necessary to do their work as it is documented in the help file. They send data only to the addresses specified in their properties and documented in the help file.

The demo projects

All the demo projects work only while their windows are shown. None of them works in a hidden mode.

Below you can find a list of demo projects that may transfer private data via the network and the measures we have taken to prevent their unattended leakage.

1. "Desktop" (SendAndReceive\RemoteDesktop\) sends the computer desktop images to a connected DesktopControl (or compatible) application via the network. While doing it, "Desktop" shows the IP address of the connected application.

2. "Sender" (SendAndReceive\TwoApps\) sends video (for example, from the user's web camera) to the address specified in "Send to" field (by default, it is a local address).

3. "WhiteAndGrayIP" (SendAndReceive\TwoSides\) sends video (for example, from the user's web camera) and audio to the address specified in "Connect to" field (by default, it is a local address).

4. "Chat", "ChatRooms", "Messenger", "Conference", "Lecture" (ClientServer\VideoChats\) send video (for example, from the user's web camera), sound from a microphone, and typed text messages to the IP address specified in the "Address" field (by default, it is a local address). Normally, the user should run "Server" demo on this address. "Chat", "ChatRooms", "Messenger", "Conference", "Lecture" show all clients that may receive data from them in their user interface: any application that may receive data from these clients is visible to the user as an item in the list of online clients. "Server" writes all its incoming connections to a log.

All other demo projects either do not send data via the network, or send only commands to the specified IP cameras.
