MEDIA SERVER USER MANUAL
Description of Indicators
The MBOX Remote window has several indicators that provide system information.
Server status - The green, yellow, or red dot to the left of the server name in the Server View column indicates the
running status of the server:
+
Green – Server connection OK, MBOX running in Fullscreen mode.
+
Green/Yellow Flashing – Server connection OK, MBOX running in Window mode.
+
Yellow – Server connection OK, MBOX not running.
+
Red – No server connection.
Note:
The server connection status is dependent on the MBOX Daemon application running on the MBOX server(s).
The MBOX Designer application can be running, but unless the Daemon application is also running, Remote will only
display the red dot and will not provide any feedback.
Server IP Address – each MBOX server’s IP address is shown under the server’s name in the Server View column.
Local Timecode Value – if the computer running the Remote application is receiving timecode locally, that timecode
value will be displayed at the top-right of the Remote window.
Server Timecode Value – if an MBOX server is receiving timecode locally or over the network, that timecode value
will be show to the right of the server’s IP address in the Server View column.
Layer Opacity – the vertical white line to the left of each layer video stream represents the opacity value of that layer.
Playback Position, In/Out Points – the length of the green line below each layer video stream represents the position
of the layer’s current in and out point values, and the yellow dot represents the current playhead position.
Monitor HUD
The Monitor HUD can be toggled on and off by pressing [
M] on the keyboard. It will show a floating window of the
Breakout View that is currently selected (designated by a surrounding white box) in the main window.
Note:
The size of the Monitor HUD view can be adjusted in the Remote Preferences window. This allows you to set
the main application window images to be quite small to save space, but still have a large view of the selected server
or layer.
