Configuring Aurora Ingest
Once you have installed any hardware (if necessary) and the software components of
Aurora Ingest, you need to configure the Aurora Ingest options for your particular
newsroom equipment and workflow.
You can add and configure VTRs with the VTR Controller and VTR Ingest
applications. The Aurora Ingest - RMI client is configured through the Aurora
Ingest - RMI application. All other configuring can be performed in the Aurora
Ingest - Server application.
