The Asset Type defines the application of the asset, or the intended use of the file. By default, the asset type is configured to include the following elements:
• Duratran — used to create the backgrounds that appear behind news anchors.
• Headshot — a portrait or photograph of a person’s head.
• Logo — a graphic mark, icon, or symbol used as an identifier for a company, organization, or other group.

An asset category defines the object class of the asset. By default, the category metadata is configured to include the following elements: Audio, Document, Image, Other, and Video.
This metadata defines the geographical or network affiliate level associated with the asset. By default, the content region metadata is configured to include the following elements: International, Local, Nation, and State.
This metadata defines the format of the file that is associated with the asset in the Streamline system. No elements are pre-defined for this metadata. Instead, the Streamline system automatically updates this list whenever assets are added.
This metadata specifies the level of importance of the asset. For example, a Rush priority would be assigned to a work order that is due immediately versus a work order with a priority of Low that is due in a week. By default, the priority metadata is configured to include the following elements: High, Low, Medium, and Rush.
Shows
This metadata identifies the program or segment associated with the asset. No elements are pre-defined for this metadata.
Stations
This metadata identifies the call sign of the commercial television station identified with the asset. No elements are pre-defined for this metadata.
This metadata is a keyword or term that describes an asset and facilitates searches of the Streamline system. For example, adding the tags “child”, “American” and “flag” to an asset that includes a still image of a child posing with an American flag would list the asset in searches for “American” or “flag” or “child”. No elements are pre-defined for this metadata.
