What is iTX SmartClient?
The Miranda iTX SmartClient (also known as just SmartClient) is an application that
provides access to the resources of an iTX system to enable you to research video clips,
assemble shot lists and perform various asset-management tasks.
You can use SmartClient to:
• Find and view details of assets (video clips, project clips and placeholder clips).
• Play back video clips.
• Edit video-clip in- and out-points.
• Edit video-clip metadata.
• Annotate video clips by marking events and adding metadata.
• Annotate a live feed by marking events and adding metadata.
• Create and edit project clips (shot lists).
• Find and view details of Adobe After Effects (AE) projects, templates and pages in iTX.
• Edit the content of text layers in AE pages and templates.
Any of the above tasks may be related to jobs in iTX Workflow processes.
After performing a task, you may use SmartClient to set up other jobs. For example, after
marking the in- and out-points of a video clip, you may trigger a job for an operator to
check the quality of the high-resolution media.
