Creating SmartBins in NewsEdit
Once you’ve installed the SmartBins Service, you can create SmartBins in
NewsEdit which get automatically monitored and updated. A SmartBin
monitors the server folder you specify and updates the content of the SmartBin
automatically when new clips or updated feeds appear. You don’t need to go
into the server bin and copy the media into your NewsEdit bin in order to use it
in for playout.
To create a SmartBin:
1. Open NewsEdit on any client workstation.
2. Click the
New Bin
button on the Bin toolbar.
3. Select the SmartBin Type from the drop-down list:
4. Follow the directions below for the type of SmartBin you are creating.
Video Server SmartBin
Allows clips from a Media Server to update automatically in a
NewsEdit Bin.
Media Import SmartBin
Allows QuickTime DV25 .mov and DV50 .mov files to import
automatically into a NewsEdit Bin.
