1. An external system, for example IPDirector, sends an XML file to XTAccess to

request the backup and reference of a given clip created on an XT[2] server to
CleanEdit database.

XTAccess processes the XML file:

2. It gets the clip content, which has to be backed up, from XT[2].

3. It generates a backup file of the clip in the format specified by the external

system (no transcoding feature, only native codec). The following formats are
supported: EVS MXF, MXF OP-1A, Quick Time (depending on the video codec).

4. It stores the backup file in the target folder specified by the external system.

The clip and its metadata are referred to in the CleanEdit database.

Remark:

If the backup is not successful, the clip will be deleted from the disk and

CleanEdit database.

The referencement in the CE DB is done at the beginning of the backup and an
update is done at the end.
