Client Window Content Organization
The media server on each fixture has a
file system that holds the movies,
images, and 3-D objects that make up
the content that the server uses.
These files, folders, and their DMX
values are collectively known as the
“Content” on the media server.
The Client Management Window
organizes and identifies content by
source (preloaded Stock content or
custom User content) and type (Media
files or 3D Object files).
NOTE: Tree structure differs slightly on the two platform versions. In the Mac version, to
access Server Configuration information for an individual server, select the Con-
figuration option under the individual server. In Windows Explorer, config-
uration information for the server is located directly by selecting the server.
Preloaded Stock Content
A large library of Stock Media and Stock Objects ships on every DL.3, DL.2 or Axon media
server and will also be provided through upgrades from High End Systems.
Note: The DL.3 fixture ships with an additional 400+ files of media content,
many in higher resolution.
This content is read only. You won’t be able to download, edit the DMX values or remove these
files from the fixture.
Custom User Content
You can create your own custom User Media and User Objects content, and upload it to media
servers. The Stock Content and User Content reside in separate folders. The High End Systems
Digital Lighting Community (
forums.highend.com ) is a resource for tips and techniques on
creating User Content. See “Custom User Content” on page C-301 for basic considerations in
developing your own content for Axon or Digital Light media servers.
