116 Part II General Administration
Global Preferences Settings
The Global Preferences pane contains the most common settings. Many of these are
duplicates of the settings in the General pane of Final Cut Server System Preferences.
Following are the Global Preferences pane settings:
 SMTP Server: Enter the name of the outgoing SMTP server used to send all emails. This
setting is also configured during the Final Cut Server installation process. If this was left
blank during installation, this setting defaults to “localhost” which you can use if this
computer has Mac OS X Server v10.5 and is configured as an SMTP email server.
Final Cut Server can be configured to send email notifications for a variety of reasons,
such as a set of assets being ready for review. See “
About Email Responses ” on
page 209 for more information.
 Max Running Jobs: Enter the maximum number of jobs that can run concurrently on
Final Cut Server. Most facilities will set this to no more than 20 jobs.
 Retry Count: Enter the maximum number of times to retry a failed job.
 Retry Timeout: Enter the period in seconds to wait before retrying a failed job.
 Image Sequence Video Frame Rate: Choose the frame rate to use when working with
still-image sequences.
 Default Media Metadata Set: Choose the default metadata set to apply to
Final Cut Pro project media.
