Xedio Suite Version 3.1 - User’s Manual – Ingest Organizer
The Xedio Ingest application allows a user to control encoder channels to digitize any incoming video into high resolution, low resolution or both simultaneously (a panel of different codecs is available). The Xedio Ingest application can control multiple incoming feeds simultaneously and offers a VGA monitoring feed of the incoming video as it is being enco ded.
As a fully integrated part of the Xedio Suite of applications the files are entered into the database as they are being ingested and can be used by other applications in the Sui te even before the encoding pr ocess has been completed.
The Xedio Ingest is a server/client based system and therefore consists of two elements:
Xedio Ingest (server) – Software which runs on the hardware encoder to enable the control of the ingest proce ss.
Xedio Ingest Organizer (client) – Software which runs on any workstation within the Xedio environment and controls the ingest process of all encoders that are part of the system.

2. Xedio Ingest - Server

The Xedio Ingest (server) application running on a hardware encoder is usually set up to auto start when the computer is switched on. If however it is not set up in this way the program can be started manually. Click on the Xedio Ingest icon on the desktop to start the application.
A dialogue box will then appear and ask the user to start the application. At this point a password can be set up and ticking the check box can set the auto start option.
When the application is started the message window shows the progress of the connection to the Client application and displays any problems it may have in the set up.
