ROFILES AND FIELDS

Metadata is customer-defined data which can be associated with
clips in IP Director.

The metadata is available in IP Director via profiles, i.e. sets of
fields which are managed together. Lists of possible values are

provided with each of the fields in the form of the drop-down
lists. Other fields are text fields in which the user types a value.
The user can also specify a default value for a field.

These metadata profiles and related fields are defined in
dedicated .xml files which can be imported into IP Director. The
following screenshot shows an example of a profile for a tennis

event.
