EVS IP2Archive Configurator Version 1.0 - July 2013 User Manual - Manual (Page 27)

Note
Before you start configuring this tab, make sure you have already configured the
connection with the IPDirector API. See section "Configuring the Connection
with the IPDirector API" on page 1. Otherwise, an error message will appear if
you open the Metadata tab. Also, the drop-down lists where you have to select
the userfields and the metadata profile will be empty.
Selecting the Archive Metadata Profile
The Archive Metadata Profile group box displays a grid with the names of the available
metadata profiles retrieved from IPDirector. If you haven't configured the connection with
the IPDirector API yet, this list will be empty.
Select the Default check box of the IP2Archive metadata profile. If a clip has no metadata
profile assigned to it yet in IPDirector, the IP2Archive Communicator will assign the
metadata profile you have marked as being the default profile. To avoid that the userfields
linked to the other metadata profiles appear in the drop-down lists of the Archive Metadata
Userfields group box, select the corresponding Ignore check box.
Selecting the Archive Metadata Userfields
In the Archive Metadata Userfields group box the names of the userfields that have to be
updated are displayed. For each userfield, you have to select the name of the
corresponding userfield in IPDirector from a drop-down list.Once you have selected a user
field, the type of user field (text, combo box, date) will be displayed next to it. If you
haven't configured the connection with the IPDirector API yet, this list will be empty.
