Action Description
This action template allows us to easily create an action that directly copies video files between video servers supporting Serial Digital Interface (SDI). This type of copy will enable streaming of the copied video file even if the copy process is not yet finished (partial preview).
Action Parameters
To create this action, you have to compile the following fields:
•Friendly name: Insert a title for the new action,
•Description: Enter a brief description regarding the SDI action,
•English name: For better understanding purposes, give an intelligible English name to the action,
•Select source device: Select the video server on which video files to be copied are stored,
•Select source codec: You can specify to copy only video files with a specific type of codec,
•Select destination device: Select the video server to which video files will be copied,
•Select destination codec: Specify the final codec that video files must have after the copy.
How to use it
Once an SDI action is created, inserted into a T-workflow and subsequently assigned to an asset to be performed, it must be launched from the SDI Copies application in the Etere Ingest module.
