Instruction Manual
NOTE: Updates to Archive Permissions/changes to Archive will not appear until tablet users re-login. PC users need only re-enter an
archive folder to refresh Permissions.
Permissions set on a category do not automatically apply to sub-categories of that folder. The permissions must be set individually
on each sub category. The only exception to this rule is the DVR Recordings category. Permissions set on the DVR Recordings
category apply to all categories created in this folder by Record services.
Configuring Metadata
When selecting Archives > Configure Metadata, the following page appears (FIG. 98).
The Archive supports two styles of metadata:
Built-in: This type of metadata cannot be modified.
Normal: This information is available in both management and user interfaces.
The built-in metadata is used to display the available formats of specific videos and technical information about the videos.
Metadata is stored in different sections which appear in the information bar when playing a video in the archive. User-created
metadata sections can be of one of two types:
Text Section: Sequential text.
Table Section: A table with a user defined number of columns.
