Configure NTFS MDI
This page specifies the machines, directories, and file types that the NTFS MDI can
access. The Aurora Browse application makes these available as selections for saving
and managing assets, including EDLs.
• Enter a location for saving EDLs. Typically this would be on a NAS machine, such
as \\root-nas-n\EDLs.
• Enter a location for temporarily saving EDLs as they are being conformed.
Typically this would be on the MediaFrame server, such as
\\root-nb-svr\TempEDL.
NOTE: Configure different locations for EDL operations. Do not use the same
locations for saving, temporary saving, conforming, and exporting EDLs.
• Enter a location for saving audio files. Typically this would be on a NAS machine,
such as \\root-nas-n\Audio.
• Enter xml-edl/xml and wav-audio/wav as a file-types.
Configure Media Frame Core ASK: NTFS
Make sure the NTFS MDI is registered with the ASK software component with a
logical name, as explained in
