Configuring search buttons on the Asset layout
An operator uses search buttons on the Asset layout to run PinPoint, the iTX search tool, to
search the System Database for assets. These buttons have PinPoint search criteria preset for
them; you may change the preset criteria for any button.

Configuring Encoder Settings buttons
A Settings button is linked to each Encoder Control on various ingest layouts. The button stores
settings that determine the properties of files created when the associated Encoder Control is
used to record a video feed.
Any set of values for these settings can be saved as an encoding profile; selecting the profile
recalls the saved values. This makes it easy for operators to set up an Encoder Control to create
files with identical properties. The Settings button enables operators to manage profiles.
