Chapter 3 Configuring the NewsBrowse System
Configure Conform Services
This page tells the NewsBrowse application where to store EDLs that are to be
conformed and specifies Profiles that are available to conform EDLs. You can add
multiple Profiles as Conform Services, each of which is then available for selection
from the NewsBrowse application.
NOTE: Configure different locations for EDL operations. Do not use the same
locations for saving, temporary saving, conforming, and exporting EDLs.
For a Conform-To-Air service, one Profile (often an Open SAN Profile) does the
work of conforming the EDL, then the resultant high-res asset is transferred to an
On-Air Profile (usually a stand-alone Profile) for playout. You must define the
NewsBrowse application display name, the Profiles, and the locations to make this
type of Conform-to-Air service available in the NewsBrowse application.
