PIXNET Unit Page Metadata View
To show the Metadata View, click the Arrow button located on far end of the Metadata bar, which
acts as a toggle that expands or contracts the view for the previous, current, and next takes.
While metadata is visible, you can still scroll down to see the tabs—Clips, File Storage, Video, etc.
From this expanded view, you may edit the metadata—Scene, Take, Circled, and Notes—for the pre-
vious, current, and next takes. Changes made to the Notes field for the next take, however, will only
apply to the very next recording. It is not retained for subsequent recordings after that one.
PIXNET Unit Page Menus
The Unit Page can display many different menus. The menus are accessed by clicking on the tabs of
the Unit Page.
Not all 970 menu items or features are available from PIXNET.
Clips Menu
The Clips Menu is the PIXNET version of the 970 File List. From the Clips Menu, select a drive. The
currently selected drive contents are displayed. Reel, File name and location, creation date, and file
size are all displayed. Click on the Play icon next to a file name to playback the file. Click the Gear
icon to edit the next take’s scene, take, and notes metadata. Click the Pencil icon to edit the current or
previous take’s scene, take, notes, and circled status.
File Storage Menu
File Storage Menu settings are displayed and can be edited directly from the web browser. In this
menu the Ethernet File Transfer option can be remotely activated. This allows for remote transfer of
files from the unit.
