1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
IPBrowse is a simple stand-alone application designed for browsing the lo-res content
available in the IPDirector database. Nearline storage is accessible as well. News or
sport journalists and assistant producers are users who will benefit from this application.
The IPBrowse window is an integrated window from which it is possible to perform all the
following actions. Users can apply different search techniques to find the right media from
the list of clips and logs. The results are clearly presented in a list, easy to consult. A
Player pane is used to display the selected media, browse it and create a clip from it if
needed. Users place the selected clips in predefined bins where clips can be re-ordered.
Then, they send the bin content to target destinations, such as post-production systems.
Logs added to media are particularly useful to easily and quickly retrieve the interesting
moments of the recorded sequences. Logs cannot be created with IPBrowse, but they
can with IPDirector or Clip Logger. IPBrowse can be used to search for logs, preview
them on the Player pane inside the clip(s) associated to them and create new clips based
on the logs.
Floating licenses are supported, so a large number of stations can be equipped with the
IPBrowse application.
Note
The IPBrowse application works with floating licenses imported in the
database.
