Using Ingest Manager

If the naming rule includes a free-text element, the box to the right of the Rules Available

box becomes active; this allows you to add your own text to a name. The box displays an ‘x’

for each character you can add.
Ingest Manager creates a name (based on the selected naming rule) for the resulting media

file and its clip; it enters the name in the Recording Name box.
You may edit this name if you want to.

Note:

If you click Clear on the Instant Ingest Request panel, Ingest Manager creates a new name

based on the selected naming rule.

Monitoring and managing scheduled recordings

On an Ingest Manager layout, you can monitor the progress of jobs in the recording schedule

by viewing information on the Timeline Display or in the Schedule Grid. You can check that

there are no problems, such as missing feeds or unavailable Encode Servers. You can delete

jobs from the recording schedule.

Since the layout gives you access to Ingest Manager services that may be shared by other users,

the layout may display information about scheduled recordings requested by any of these

users.

Recording-status colors

Ingest Manager highlights the entries in the Recording Schedule Grid different colors to show

how recording jobs are progressing; it uses the same set of colors for the blocks on the Timeline

Display. We explain the color codes below.
