Xedio Dispatcher – Version 3.1 – User’s Manual

EVS Broadcast Equipment – December 2010

Issue 3.1.B

1. Introduction

1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Xedio Dispatcher is a software product used for importing A/V files, rough-cutting
and exporting rough-cuts to multiple destinations and formats.

Xedio Dispatcher automatically detects connected devices (such as P2, XDCAM or
XDCAM EX devices), and instantly displays their contents. This allows immediate
browsing of the media directly on the device, which speeds up the shoot selection,

sub-clipping and/or fast rough-cut editing. Shoots, sub-clips and edits can also be
instantly logged.

Once selected or created, the sub-clips and consolidated storyboards can be
easily transferred from the device itself to any EVS video server (for example:
XT[2]+, XS), media server (for example: SAN, XStore), or any type of storage.
Simultaneous transfers to multiple destinations in multiple formats are supported
thanks to Xedio on-the-fly SD/HD rewrapping & transcoding capabilities.
