Test: Sequential encoder + Server stage

You can define three sequential encoder rules for each Profile bin the NewsBrowse
system monitors. To ensure consistency, for each bin, add all three rules.

The following table maps the sequential encoder rules and provides an example text
string for each rule, as appears in the Existing Rules box when the rule is added.

Refer to

“Configure Rules Automation: ISS” on page 81

for ISS rules.

Test: Sequential encoder + Server stage

The following test exercises system functionality exclusive to the basic
configurations for the Sequential encoder + Server stage. A successful test verifies
that the basic configurations are correct.

Test description: Trigger rules by creating/modifying a clip on a Profile Media server
while the Rules Wizard service is off, then on.

Run the test as follows:

1. Make sure that the NewsBrowse system is not in use.

2. Make sure the Thomson Rules Wizard service is off on the NewsBrowse server.

3. Start the Thomson Resolver service and the Thomson Metadata service on the

NewsBrowse server.

4. Click

Start | Programs | Thomson | Event Viewer

to open Event Viewer.

5. On a Profile Media Server, copy a clip into a bin monitored by the sequential

encoder.

6. On the NewsBrowse server, start the Thomson Rules Wizard. Watch Event Viewer

and verify that the MPEG asset is created for the clip.

7. On the Profile Media Server, copy another clip into the bin. Watch Event Viewer

and verify that the MPEG proxy asset is created for the clip.

8. On the Profile Media Server, modify a clip (rename) in the bin. Watch Event

Viewer and verify that the MPEG proxy asset is created for the modified clip.
