steps described in Additional Setup for Search Media mode , on page 59.
Adding a Pitch Blue Endpoint
Pitch Blue uses the standard FTP protocol, but requires a specific 'hard coded' username
and password, which needs to be entered into the configuration dialog of the Pitch Blue
archive itself. This is because the Pitch Blue archive delivery system uses a dedicated
proprietary computer for content delivery. The Username and Password FTP connection
details are supplied to you when your Pitch Blue System is installed. If you do not know
these details, contact your IT department.
Default Extension If restoring files from an external archive that have no file
extension, this is the default extension type is added to the
file name when transferred into iTX.
Exclude Folders Using add/remove buttons you can add details of sub folders
you wish to exclude. Note: this is a search string, so the
folders need to be typed using the syntax:
*\folder
name\* .
Keep Media Location This option instructs the database to keep the original
location of the media as part of the asset record (if the file is
being copied rather than transferred).
Remove File Extension on
Archive Some archive and media stores do not support DOS file
extensions. This is because they only support one file type,
meaning the extension is not required. This option removes
the file extension from the file name when moving to an
archive.
Maximum Transfer Bitrate This slider sets the throttle rate on network file transfer
speeds for each file. The default is 100mbs.
