Setting Media Options
Setting Options Description
Playout Servers Lets you define the media servers you are using for playout.
To add a playout server, click
Add , enter the Name and
Drive where the media is stored on the playout server, and
click OK .
If you are using mirrored playback, add both servers here.
Ingest Servers Use the Auto Transfer feature to automatically transfer
media from a source (ingest) server to a destination
(playout) server. The Auto Transfer takes place only when
media that is sent to or recorded on the ingest server is
associated with a Playout placeholder that is part of a
MOS-Active rundown.
To add an ingest server, check
Auto Transfer , click Add ,
enter the name, and click OK . To change the ingest server
to a different server, select the server and click Rename .
A media server can only be either a source or destination
server for Auto Transfer, so the same media server should
never be added to both the Playout and Ingest sections. If
you are not using Auto Transfer, leave this section blank.
Media Bin Aurora Playout creates a default Media Bin where playout
media is sent; also used for monitoring ready status and clip
duration.
