Media​-Store

Media​-Store allows you to load stills, animations, or audio from the hard drive and make them available as a source on the switcher. Each ME Media​-Store has of cache for 2 channels of audio and 4 channels video, with alpha.

Keep the following in mind:

Keep the following in mind when you are using the Media​-Store:

  • If you know the number of the still you want to load, you can select the crosspoint button mapped to the still-store channel on the ME, and then enter the still number on the keypad on the Global Memory module.
  • You can clear the still currently loaded into a channel by selecting 0 as the still number you load from the keypad on the Global Memory module. This is the same as pressing the Eject button.
  • If you are loading an Auto Key (PNG or TGA with alpha) into a media-store channel, you must have another media-store channel associated with the current one to load the alpha into.
  • Corrupt files are shown with the warning Not a valid image format and should be deleted from the switcher.
  • Using a third-party application to upload, edit, or move media items or directories on the switcher can cause the permissions to those files or directories to be set incorrectly. Use the Media​-Store Permissions feature from the Web UI to clean the permissions.
