Viewing Recording Information

There are a few ways to view information about past, current, or upcoming recordings. You can locate this information from the Channels view, in the recording box, which appears on the Schedule timeline.

To view recording information:

• Scroll to the recording box on the Schedule timeline.

  

  The name of the recording (e.g., New Show), its duration (e.g., 16:26:30 - 16:27:30), and sources associated with the recording (e.g., fsi-ic-199_1), display on the recording box in the Schedule panel.

  If you double-clicking the recording box for

  • Future recordings, it opens the Recording Details | Edit dialog box that shows additional information about the recording.

  • Current or Past recordings, it opens the asset in the MediaCentral Cloud UX player. If the asset is not created yet, a message is displayed with the Retry option.

  n The asset creation can take from a few seconds to even a minute, depending on the system capabilities and the number of channels doing the check-in simultaneously.

  For more information, see Editing Previously Scheduled Recordings.

• To obtain all of the general information for a given recording, select a recording that you want to view more detailed information on, and click the Recording Info tab from the Monitoring Panel. This is where you can view your recording both from Channels View as well as List View. It provides information on the recording itself, on the ingest server, and on the cross point for the router.

  n The Recording tab can be opened anytime, and the content displayed there depends on the selection. It could be the selection on Channels View or List View (not only List View).

  The Recording Info tab opens and displays all of the information regarding the selected recording.

  

• For FastServe | Ingest, you can view information regrading transfers or retransfers, by selecting a recording that you want to view, transfer or retransfer, click the Recording Info tab. The General section opens and displays all of the information regarding the selected recording. Then, click the Transfers button.

  The Transfers section is displayed.

  

  If you want to retransfer a recording, just click the Retransfer button next to the recording you want to retransfer.

  n The Retransfer option is also available for the Proxy if this option has been enabled in the ingest template.

  A successful retransfer is possible if the past recording is still accessible through the timeline/recording list view and the media is still present on the video server itself (FastServe Ingest/AVS). A retransfer will fail if the media has been deleted from the recording video server.

• To view ingest server information for a given recording, click the Ingest Server tab.

  n Transfers created by the Post Export feature of FastServe | Ingest are shown in the list if done, however they cannot be retransferred.
