Configure Profile MDI: Conform to air settings

This page configures the Managed Device Interface (MDI) for the Profile Media
Servers that record and store the high-res media. The MediaFrame system depends on
the Profile MDI to make high-res media assets visible across the system.

For the EDL stage, configure the settings related to the EDL Conform to air feature.
Specify one of more on-air Profiles as the targets to which conformed high-res clips
can be transferred for playout.

For other settings, refer to

“Configure Profile MDIs” on page 60
