16. Transcoding files

XTAccess can also transcode files to another file format.

16.1 WORKFLOW

The following schema shows how the transcoding process is performed with the

Gigabit connection and XTAccess:

Gigabit Ethernet

Video Feeds

Apple

Final Cut Pro

GigE

Avid

Archive

1. As transcoding is not yet available with XML job file, you have to configure

XTAccess in transcoding mode.

2. An external system (which can generate XML files for restoring clips, for

example IPDirector v5) sends an XML job to XTAccess to request the

rewrap of a file from an archiving or backup system to a new file format

and archive storage.

3. XTAccess processes the XML job:

a. It gets the file to transcode from the external system.
b. It generates a new file on the destination storage.
