Recommendations
The XTAccess software is installed on a workstation operating under Windows XP
or Windows 2003 Server.
The minimum system requirements are:
•
Workstation or Laptop
•
XP Pro OS, Windows 2003 Server
•
CPU Pentium P4, 2.0 Ghz +
•
512 MB RAM (2GB for the rendering of playlist and transcoding jobs)
•
GigE board with Jumbo Frame capabilities
•
VGA 1024x768
The XTAccess software runs either on EVS workstations like IPDirector, XFile,
XStore, or on any standalone third-party workstation.
Important
Jobs like transcoding, backup of clips or trains, restore/copy of files to
EVS Server use CPU resources on the device where XTAccess runs. It is
then advised not to run any other critical application simultaneously on
the XTAccess device, especially when the CleanEdit Suite or IPDirector
are installed as standalone systems with a local database.
