Operator Manual

You can install and register GV STRATUS Playout Gateway instances on different computers
in your network to monitor multiple watch folders. You may want to set up watch folders on
multiple computers to support multiple instances of the File Processing Node application
or to import the same media files from different locations. To monitor multiple watch
folders, repeat the process for each location. In each location install a GV STRATUS Playout
Gateway instance, designate a watch folder, and configure the GV STRATUS Playout
Gateway instance to monitor the designated folder.
