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.

With MediaFrame integration, you can search, add and edit metadata of assets that
had been created. In addition, you also can preview proxy of assets via the MediaFrame
clip player.

About Housekeeping tab

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

The Housekeeping tab displays the clips in the database, a Recycle Bin with clips to
be deleted, and a system message area.
