By default, the metadata of the current profile is associated with the new created
clips. For this reason, the users need to check the current profile before they start
creating clips. For more information on defining a current profile, refer to the
Metadata chapter in Part 1 of this user manual.
If the users create a clip without a current profile being specified in IP Director, no
metadata will be associated with the clip.
However the users can associate a profile with an existing clip or modify the
associated profile. Doing this, they will add metadata to the clip or modify it.
To add or modify metadata to an existing clip, proceed as follows:
1. Load the clip in the Control Panel.
2. Select the full view to display the tabbed pane.
3. Select the Metadata tab.
3. Select the profile you want to associate with the clip in the Clip Profile
field.
The profile is loaded and the related fields are displayed below.
4. If requested, modify the field values of the profile.
5. Click the Update Clip button on the Control Panel to save the changes.
The selected profile is now associated with the clips, as well as the values you
defined for the profile fields.
