Firewall Issues
QS Pro Designer uses HTTP protocol when downloading files to the media players. If QS Pro Designer fails to
download files to the players, a PC firewall or a firewall in the router may be blocking this operation.
Virus protection programs may block this operation also.
Unblocking the Computer Firewall
When QS Pro Designer is first installed, you will be prompted to unblock the firewall for QS Pro. Please accept
to unblock. This does not pose much of security issue due to the fact that you are only unblocking the QS Pro
application as opposed to the whole computer and it will only download video files that you have specified.
Usually no further action will be needed and QS Pro will function properly.
Manually Unblocking the Computer Firewall
If video files fail to download, you may need to verify that the firewall is indeed off for QS Pro.
You can temporarily turn the firewall completely off to test if this resolves the file transfer issue.
