5. Importing Files from EVS Servers
5.1. Introduction
5.1.1. Direct Access to the EVS Video Servers
The EVS Server tab makes it possible to have a direct visibility and access to the material
on the EVS video servers (XT, XS or XL servers) via the Ethernet connection. The media
you will import will be referenced in the Xedio Media server (but not physically imported)
and its definition will be added to the Xedio database.
To be able to view the server content in the EVS Server tab, the servers need to be
properly defined in the Linx > EVS Video Server tool in Xedio Manager.
5.1.2. Accessing Video Server Clips Versus
Backup Files
When you use the direct access functionality, you will access the media directly on the
EVS video server, as long as it has not been backed up. If it has been backed up via XFile
(automatic or manual backup) or IPDirector (Send to a CleanEdit target), CleanEdit will
open the backup file, instead of the clip on the EVS video server.
Warning
As clips are not protected from a manual deletion on the EVS video server, it is
highly recommended to perform a backup in XFile or in IPDirector.
