As a media management application, Xplorer offers you different ways of moving assets to,
from, and within the Xmedia Server and other devices. Which method you use for moving
assets around depends upon the type or source of the asset and its destination.

assets on the Xmedia Server (XMS) and other configured devices:
•
“Managed versus unmanaged assets” on page 4-2
• “Ingesting third-party content files” on page 4-4
• “Importing content files that are native to the Vertigo Suite system” on page 4-13

• “Propagating assets from the Xmedia Server to another server” on page 4-22
• “Exporting Vertigo asset files to another Xmedia Server” on page 4-23
