Introduction

DIGITAL ARCHIVING ON REMOVABLE MEDIA

The XFile has access to all footage recorded on XT6U, XT4U, AirBox and
SpotBox servers through the SDTI network. When a clip is created on
one of the servers, a copy is automatically transferred to XFile.


Each clip is saved as a separate file on the removable media, including
not only video, audio and time code information, but also all metadata
associated with that clip: name, descriptors, creation date, original
location (server s/n, register), etc. The transfer between an XT6U or
XT4U to the XFile is a data transfer, i.e. no decoding/encoding process
takes place at any point, preserving the original quality of the footage,
including super-motion character if applicable.

All files saved to XFILE can be opened with XFILE Lite application.
