Issue 2.14.B

The Output tab allows the user to define the settings related to the format and the

name of the backup file or the backup clip created.

These settings will have priority on the default settings defined in the Jobs tab of
the XStream Configuration window.

XFile Clipname

Specifies the name of the clip that XFile will create for the backup of the record

train(s). The same clipname is assigned to each record train that is backed up in a
given job.

Output File Format

Seven different output formats are available to save the files: EVS MXF 2 MB,
MXF OP1a (SD IMX Only), Quick Time Movie, Quick Time Reference, Transfer to

Avid Ingest Device, Avid MXF OPAtom and Avid OP1a (Std SMPTE).

Path

Manually select/modify the path for this recording to the correct folder/disk.

Filename

Allows to specify an automatic filename for each possible file format selected in
the Output Mode group boxes.

See also section ‘Format String’ on page 127 and ‘How to Modify the Default
Format String for the Filename
’, on page 127.

If the filename is not filled in, the default filename will be used. The approximating
filename is displayed below this field. It takes into account the expected values for

the fields included in the filename.

Output Mode

It is not mandatory to use Secondary and Third outputs. When no output format is
selected from the Output Mode field, Output Disabled is displayed.

Compulsory Output for Secondary and Third Output Modes

When the Compulsory Output check box is selected, all the jobs must be
completed. If the backup of the compulsory output failed, the entire job will be
stopped.
