When you create a new project, you have to specify the following characteristics:
• Project name
A default label for the new project is automatically assigned. You can change
it.
• Video standard
The video standard specifies the resolution and frequency that will be used for
playing out, exporting or rendering the project.
Once you click OK to validate the new project, the project characteristics are
recorded in the database
When a project is open, its name is displayed in bold characters in the Project
zone.

During this workflow, it will be assumed that the media is available in Xedio
CleanEdit. To be available in Xedio CleanEdit, the media needs to be ‘imported’
into Xedio CleanEdit and set to ‘Publish’, in other words defined in the Xedio
database. A media which is not published is only visible through Xedio Manager,
Xedio Browse and Xedio Approval.
Importing media into CleanEdit can be done, among others, via the Media
Importer. For more information, refer to the section 3 ‘Importing Media’, on page
19. Importing media always implies that the media is defined in the Xedio
database but does not always mean that it is physically imported to the Xedio
storage system.
Other ways to import or reference a new media in Xedio are: XTAccess,
IPDGateway, Xedio Dispatcher, Xedio AutoFileImporter.

Two tabs in the Work area can be used to bring the media that is defined in the
database into a project:
• XT Clips tab or
• Media Manager tab.
It is recommended to use only one of them for a specific workflow. For example,
XT Clips tab for all sport events (using EVS video servers) and Media tab for
Newsrooms. It does not make sense to show the XT Clips tab in a Newsroom.
You will search the media in one of the tabs, then drag and drop it to the Media
zone of your project.
You will find below a general description on the media that can be available in
these tabs.
You will find more details on the search filters available and possible operations in
these tabs in the section 4 ‘Searching for and Managing Media’, on page 22.
