. Change 8000 with the port you'd prefer to use.
Beware: this parameter is only available for player version >= 6.3.3. Using this parameter with previous version will crash the player at launch time without any error message.
Configuring the way Intuiface Player deals with crashes
Before Intuiface Player v6.0.5
To avoid displaying a crash report window generated by a Player for Windows, the tag <IntuifacePlayerConfiguration CrashWindowType="Default">
must be modified to <IntuifacePlayerConfiguration CrashWindowType="Default" SilentCrashReport="true">
.
Starting with Intuiface Player v6.0.5
The crash report window is deactivated by default.
If you want to re-activate the display of the crash report window, the tag <IntuifacePlayerConfiguration CrashWindowType="Default">
must be modified into <IntuifacePlayerConfiguration CrashWindowType="Default" SilentCrashReport="false">
.
