Burns Start After All Flash Files Are Created

If the User attempts to burn a disc before all of the preview Flash files for a job’s content have
been created, the MA server alerts the User and ignores the burn request. The job remains in the
queue and once all the preview files are generated, the job is run during the next scheduled burn.

To burn the job as soon as possible, click on the

Create media now

action button, see

create

media now

on page 24. It is also necessary that the MA server’s burn settings be set for this

action, see

Create media now (Burn-on-Demand)

on page 43.

Maximum Video Clip Size

A single video clip cannot exceed 50GB in size, P2 or SxS. Archiving a video clip this size
requires the use of a dual-sided BD disc.

Identifying Archived Content

When a content file is archived: the file is burned to disc, file integrity verified, and the ID
number of the archive disc is assigned to the content file. This number appears as the:

ID

in the bin, below the file thumbnail,

Media ID

in the Preview Player

Stored on media:

in the shortlist output

In addition, each content file is assigned a unique identifier that is listed in the shortlist as the
file’s

ID

.

ProxSysMA Services Burn Tool

ProxSysMA Services is a pre-installed application on the MA server. It starts automatically
when the MA server boots up.

The burn tool uses the current

Burn Settings

to:

• Create ISO files of the content

• Configure the BD or DVD discs

• Control the disc burner, see

Burn Settings

on page 41.

Checking Burn Status

The state of the

ProxSysMA Services

icon in the desktop Tool Tray indicates the stage that

the archive process is in. When the icon flashes:

Red

- content is downloading

Green

- ISO file is being created

Yellow

- burning is taking place

Disc IDs Are Automatically Assigned and Not Customizable
To create a series of discs with a distinct name, the User can modify the Company name field, see

Label Settings

on page 44. In addition, the MA server prints the filenames of the largest clips.
