Xplorer offers a Search tool, which allows you to quickly search and find assets on the
Xmedia Server by specifying search criteria based on asset properties and meta data.
When a query is performed, the Search tool returns a listing of the assets that match the
search criteria.

others. While the advanced search allows you to create a search criteria based on the
asset’s meta data information.
