All systems assume media storage local (internal or
direct attached) to the host system with adequate
storage to support 24 hours of content at the chosen
format, and drive array is less than 80% full without
serious fragmentation.
Edit while ingest and transcode while ingest workflows
require increased disk I/O performance to support the
additional read processes, and may require disk buffer
cache drive system (see Pipeline User Guide disk
buffering details).
Viewing HD preview stream(s) can consumes high
levels of CPU which may cause dropped frames. It is
recommended that preview be turned off during
capture.
