Configuration icon. Streamline uses files systems to store the media files ingested into Streamline through a file storage method. You can add a Streamline FTP file system to push assets to a BlackStorm video server for playout. Through an FTP file system, Streamline can use MOS to integrate a BlackStorm video server into an OverDrive automation system.
After you add a file system, use the File Storage tab to associate the file system with a file storage method. Streamline users can use the associated file storage method to ingest media files into Streamline and then push assets to a BlackStorm video server for playout.
