Managing clips with Housekeeper

About the Housekeeper

Housekeeper lets you remove unwanted clips from the database to reduce the database size. You
can also import clips from a media server to access a wider variety of video footage and move files
to archive directories.

Housekeeper typically runs on the same computer as the Aurora Playout application, but can be
installed separately on another system as well. Housekeeper consists of tabs that let you remove
clips from the database, import clips, and archive clips.

About Housekeeping tab

Use the Housekeeping tab to remove clips and placeholders from the database. Deleting clips removes
them from both the Aurora Playout database and the media server.

The left side of the Housekeeping tab displays clips and placeholders in the database, the right side
displays the Recycle Bin, and the lower part displays a system message area.
