Archiving User Content
An Archive/Image is a compressed file used to store media files, folders and object files along
with valid identification DMX values. This Content Archive is used to backup User Content that
can be restored to any DL.2 server.
Using Local Archives to Prepare Content Offline
You can create a Local Archive of files stored on your harddrive to be deployed to a server at
another time. This lets you work on organizing files for a specific show offline and then upload
it to a server at a later date.
Creating a Local Archive
For CMA Running Windows XP
1. Under the FILE menu, select Create Local Archive to launch the archiving wizard.
2. Click on Add Media Folder. This will add a media folder to the left-hand column named
“MyMedia0” Each successive media folder will be named “MyMedia1, MyMedia2, and so
forth. You can rename these folders by single clicking on the name of the folder
3. After creating a folder and renaming it (if you wish), highlight the folder to add media
files.
4. Click Add Media. This will bring up a file browser window that will allow you to navigate
to the spot on your hard drive containing the media you want to add. You can add single
files or multiple files. To add multiple files, hold down shift and select multiple media files
