PRELIMINARY STEPS
• Metafile filters
In case the files to be posted are missing, it's possible to restore them by workflow. In Etereweb section System > Metafile filters (see chapter 15.14.0.0 Metafile filters) the user can create a new profile or select an existing one for each of the enabled platforms, specifying the codecs and the cloud-devices the system should use to retrieve the files.
The selected profile have to be assigned to the related platform in Etere Nunzio application, through the Edit form.
platforms_restore_metafile_filters
Note: The profiles are created only for the station in use on Etereweb. So access to Etereweb with the same station used by Etere Nunzio before creating or selecting a profile, otherwise they won't be visible in Nunzio.
• Default workflows for restore
Choose the workflow that will be launched to restore/transcode the files for each platform enabled.
