Accessing the showrunnerHUB™ Web UI

Instead, you must add "/cws/showrunner/app/" after the IP address in order to access the Web UI (e.g. https://vc-4ip/VirtualControl/Rooms/ROOMNAME/cws/showrunner/app/) DO NOT OMIT THE LAST "/"

VC-4 Currently does NOT serve the XPANEL:
The XPanel does not launch from the Showrunner HUB webpage. To access the XPanel, extract the VTZ file from the showrunner™ puf file and launch. Select Options>Host Settings and input the Host IP, IPID, Port 41794, check SSL, enter the Room ID, and Open. Type in the username and password (if applicable) and wait for the XPanel to connect.
