Media ownership
The
Owner
column (available to the system administrator only) contains
the name of the user who currently owns the media item. The
administrator can change ownership of audio items, assigning them to
another user, or sharing them among all other Broadcast Server users.
Sharing media items is a way to conserve disk space usage on Broadcast
Server and to standardize on a set of media across the organization.
Media linkage
Media items are
linked
to alerts instead of being embedded in them. This
means that you can create multiple alerts that link to a single image,
change that one image in the media library, and all the alerts are
automatically updated.
Changes to media items are immediately reflected throughout the system
in all alerts as soon as the media item is changed.
