Grass Valley iTX System v.2.6 - Manual (Page 23)

About the iTX system
Merged services and new services
Some individual Framework Services that iTX v1 uses have been combined into a single
Framework Service for iTX v2: the iTX System Service replaces the Object Data Service, Security
Service and Alerts Service.
Similarly, the two services for media-asset management are merged: the OPUS 2 service
replaces the Media Search Service and the Media Data Service. The OPUS 2 Service also
includes two services, the Keyframe Service and the Text Indexer Service, that were not in iTX
v1.
The iTX Logging Service replaces the previous Logging Service.
The iTX As Run Service replaces the Schedule Data Service.
All iTX v2 services run under the control of the iTX Server Controller.
iTX software modules
The iTX system software is organised in a number of software modules and supplied in a folder
called iTX Suite (followed by the software-version number):
The folder includes an automatic installer, called Setup. By running the installer, you can install
standard iTX v2 software modules and some custom ones.
For a basic playout system with the manual ingest of media, you usually install these modules:
• Database Server
• Output Server
• Desktop Client
• Media Watcher
• Encode Server
• Software Distributor
