2. Using the Rule Type drop-down list, select the Rule Type:
•
Proxy creation
— this rule creates a MediaFrame asset and associates the source
material to it, if it does not already exist. If the asset does not have proxy already
associated, this rule causes proxy to be created.
•
Asset creation
— this rule only creates a MediaFrame asset and associates the
source material to it, if it does not already exist. It does not create proxy. This
rule is useful for systems that don’t have proxy encoders, or systems that don’t
want to create proxy for everything (such as systems that only want to create
proxy for archived material).
3. Using the Source Type drop-down list, select the Source MDI.
4. Use the ... button to select or type in the source folder on the machine that the
system monitors for new material. Note: You must use forward slashes for this
path.

“MDI Storage Location”.
6. Check the Include Sequences box to include Aurora Edit sequences.
7. In the Destination section, use the drop-down list to select a destination MDI.
