About Virtual Media Server
The virtual media server feature of Eos is comprised of two areas, the virtual media server and
its virtual layers, and pixel maps. These areas are completely dependent on each other.
The virtual media server is a feature used to create layouts of fixtures, known as pixel maps,
which then applies media content (images, movies, text, and procedurally generated effects)
by way of virtual media layers to the pixel map.
A pixel map is a layout of fixtures onto a grid, which determines order of playback and how
the data will be interpreted and outputted to create the desired image or effect. A pixel map
creates relationships among the channels in an X-Y grid so that the channels and their
parameters can be associated with pixels in an image.
A virtual media layer contains one piece of media content. A pixel map can contain up to 12
virtual media layers, which can be stacked on top of each other or used separately.
Media Content
Image, video, HTML, and text files can be applied to a pixel map. A stock library of media can
be obtained by installing the Eos Family Pixel Mapping Installer.
Importing Media Content
Additional media content can be added via the following methods:
•
Import All Pixel Map Media - an automatic method for importing media. Files can be
automatically numbered during the import process.
•
File Manager - a manual method for importing media. Files should be numbered
manually prior to import.
•
Import Show Pixel Map Media - an automatic method of importing all media needed for
the current show file used by backup and client consoles. For more information on
synchronizing media content, see
Synchronizing Media Archives (on page 530)
Files must follow the naming convention filenumber_filename; for example, 002_
Volcano.mov.
Size, resolution and length of any imported content should be as minimal as possible. For
example, stock video content is under 10MB, under 320x180 resolution, and between 2-20
seconds.
