ANAGEMENT
A set of applications is used to manage the Keyword database,
prepare grids and dictionaries for logging, searching and
browsing.
Using the Keyword Management tools, a keyword grid’s or
dictionaries content can easily be changed and organised by the
operator and production team to make it perfectly suited for any
sport or live production. An unlimited number of keyword grids,
consisting of up to 300 words each can be managed by IP
Director.
Keyword Management tools allows the addition of single
keywords to the database and therefore to any grid. It also
allows the import of keyword Grids generated by an XT sever,
keyword grids from other IP Director installations and also the
integration of keywords and keyword grids from 3 r d party
databases which may already exist such as competitor lists and
team or event statistical databases.
Simple text files can also be easily imported into the Keyword
Database making it easy to import data from a web page or other
document where words exist for your event.

EFINITION
When the IP Director suite is opened a check is performed to
establish that all data previously stored in the database still has
associations that are correct and that the media is still available
on the XNet.
This application allows the user to manually decide which
aspects of the association between clips and logs should be
initiated afterwards. This window normally is used by an
experienced IP Director operator for very specific purposes.
