Metadata Management
The metadata tags that are available for a specific project are set by the User/Admin with the
Field in use
control, see page 39. In addition, the Media Upload Utility must be configured
for each project workflow. These settings are saved on the MA server.
Metadata Controls
The MA server metadata controls are:
Number
Set the order in which the metadata tags appear in the metadata management window.
Name
Enter the name of the metadata tag. This name may be a standardized tag name used in a NLE
or unique.
Field in use
Placing a check mark enables the metadata tag and allows it to collect metadata. Enabled
fields appear in the
ProxSysMA metadata
column in the Media Upload Utility Configuration
window.
Multiple MA Server User/Administrators and Multiple Media Uploaders
If the MA server has multiple User/Admins and each has installed their own media upload utility,
then each User/Admin must setup the MA metadata and their uploader for those metadata tags
that they need.
Remember to Save Metadata Settings
Notify Users When Making Changes to Metadata Fields
A User must restart their Media Upload Utility to download changes made with the metadata
management
