Setting Up Your Media Server
You need to configure your Media Server to work with IngestStation. Follow
the instructions below for your type of server.
M-Series iVDR
If you are using an M-Series iVDR as your media server with IngestStation, you
need to configure it as follows:
• Set up record channels to use Advanced Media Protocol (AMP).
• Configure channels to use LTC input (IngestStation only supports LTC
input).
See your M-Series iVDR documentation for instructions.
Profile Media Server
You configure the Profile Server differently for IngestStation depending on
they type of communication you’re using for the server—DCOM or RS-422.
DCOM
If you are using DCOM, see your Profile documentation and set up the server
as follows:
• Set up record channels using the Configuration Manager.
• Configure channels to use LTC input (IngestStation only supports LTC
input).
• When you connect, it is imperative that you don’t launch any of the Profile
interfaces; you can’t have any channels open in either the VdrPanel or the
AMP Application.
RS-422
If you are using RS-422, see your Profile documentation and set up the server
as follows:
• Set up record channels using the Configuration Manager.
• Configure channels to use LTC input (IngestStation only supports LTC
input).
• Use the AMP Client Application to configure channels for control by AMP.
