Setting Up a SmartBin
If you are using NewsQ in shared mode, you can have clips from a Media
Server appear in one of your bins automatically. This type of Bin is called a
SmartBin. NewsQ monitors the server folder you specify and updates the
SmartBin automatically when new clips or updated feeds appear. You don’t
need to go into the server directory and copy the media into your NewsQ bin in
order to use it for playout.
To create a SmartBin:
1. Click the New Bin button on the Bin toolbar.
2. Select the SmartBin Type from the drop-down list:
3. Follow the directions below for the type of SmartBin you are creating.
Video Server SmartBin Allows clips from a Media Server to update automatically in a
NewsQ Bin.
Media Import SmartBin Allows QuickTime DV25 .mov and DV50 .mov files to import
automatically into a NewsQ Bin.
