OGGER
A log of recorded material is essential to the production process;
by using IP Logger the speed of operations is enhanced by
automatically associating logging data to content on the XNet
network of servers. It can replace the traditional paper log sheet
(which produces manual timecode and descriptions) with a
system that automatically links a logging entry to all relevant
media created on XT servers.
The IP logger provides an easy way to add descriptive data to
the media and centralize logging data. Using the IP Logger
wizard, a log sheet can be created based on specific production
requirements.
The log sheet is created by capturing the timecode of important
events, and then easily adding keywords using customised
keyword grids, descriptions entered on the keyboard manually,
and a level rating.
Any clip present on the XNet network which includes the
timecode of logged events, and is made from a record train that
has been defined as relevant to the current log entry is then
automatically linked to the corresponding entry in the log sheet.
This effectively links the media on the XNet network to a
workflow that is friendly to a producer or editor.
IP Logger also features the capabilities to review and edit
content of the log sheet at any time during or after the event. By
linking a play channel from an XT server, the operator has a
simple and flexible way to refine logging information captured
during the live event.
