name and only File Processing Nodes configured with the same Group name can select
those jobs and process them. If no Group name is specified on GV STRATUS Playout
Gateway, only File Processing Nodes which are not configured with a Group name can
select and process its jobs.

To configure a media processing job:

1 Launch the GV STRATUS Playout Gateway.

2 Ensure that GV STRATUS Playout Gateway is configured as described in

Configuring the

watch folder

, on page 62.

3 Click the Add Media Conversion Processor button and complete the Media

Conversion file processor instance as required:

• In the Profile list, click the profile appropriate for the conversion that you need to

perform. The types of profiles available depend on which profiles were configured
on your account.

• In the Inbox field, type the path to the folder from which the Media Conversion

Processor obtains the media files to be converted or click the browse button to
choose a folder on the network.

• If you want to delete the original media files after they have been converted, select

the Deletes Original checkbox.

• If you want to have any file that fails to be processed moved to a separate folder,

select the Move Failed Files to Rejected Folder checkbox. When the checkbox is
selected and a file fails, the file is moved to the _REJECTED folder located in the
folder defined in the Inbox field of the Media Conversion file processor instance.
Files stored in the _REJECTED folder are not automatically reprocessed or deleted.
Once you have identified and fixed the issue that caused the file to fail, move it
back to the Inbox folder to be processed.

4 If you want to specify which File Processing Nodes can perform the jobs from this GV

STRATUS Playout Gateway instance, type the alphanumeric value used as the Group
name in the Group field.

5 Click Update Configuration to update GV STRATUS Playout Gateway.

6 If you configured a Group name, you must also configure a File Processing Node with

the matching Group name:

• Launch the File Processing Node that you want to configure with the Group name.

• In the Group field of the File Processing Node, type the same Group name to as you

specified for GV STRATUS Playout Gateway.

• Click Update Configuration to update the File Processing Node.
