Getting started with Xstudio
Servers settings
Servers settings specify the locations of the Xmedia Server and the Data Server. The Xmedia
Server contains all assets (all building blocks used in the creation of broadcast graphics).
This is where templates, control panels, images...etc., are stored. The Data Server is an
application that manages all data coming in from sources specified in control panels. The
Data Server distributes the data and provides live updates of data values when requested.
