Copy Response Details

You use a copy response when you want to copy the items identified by the
automation to a different location.

The settings for a copy response are as follows:

 Name: Enter the name of the response. This name will appear in the Responses pane

of the Administration window.

 Destination Device: Choose a device to copy the items to.
 Destination Subfolder: Click this checkbox to use the Browse button to choose a

Destination Device subfolder.

 Transcode source to: Choose a transcode setting to use during the copy. This list is

based on the transcode settings assigned to the device you choose.

 Metadata Set: Choose the metadata set to apply to the copied assets. Choose None to

have the media file copied but not added to the Final Cut Server catalog as an asset.

Metadata sets, which are comprised of metadata groups and fields, define the types
of metadata you can add to an asset. You can create custom metadata sets, groups,
and fields using the Final Cut Server client’s Administration window. See Chapter 11,

Managing Metadata

,” on page 135 for more information.

Important:

If the destination device already contains a file with the same name as the

one being copied, copy responses by default will not overwrite that file, and instead,
will add a numbered extension to the new file’s name. Copy responses created using
the Final Cut Server client’s Administration window can optionally be set to overwrite
an existing file with the same name. See “

About Copy Responses

” on page 207 for

more information.
