Avid Interplay Media Services Setup and User’s Guide • 0130-07633-05 Rev C • December 2010 • This document is
distributed by Avid in online (electronic) form only, and is not available for purchase in printed form.
Congratulations on your purchase of the Avid® Interplay® Media Services system consisting
of the Interplay Media Services Engine, the Interplay Media Services and Transfer Status
Tool, and the media services.
The Media Services Engine lets you take advantage of a network environment and pass
compute-intensive tasks to other workstations on your network. This allows video editors to
stay focused on their editing tasks.
For example, today’s production houses face a rising demand for translating media into
formats suitable for distribution via the Web, DVD, or CD-ROM — often at the same time.
The encoding operation is a critical part of this work. By moving or distributing this
operation to lower cost, dedicated workstations, editing workstations are free to perform
other tasks allowing you to generate two streams of revenue-producing work in parallel.
The Interplay Media Services Engine and its Media Services and Transfer Status Tool are
the keys to managing these resource-intensive process. This software infrastructure manages
all of the Interplay Media Services. As Avid develops new Media Services services, the
Media Services Engine will manage those services as well.
This guide is intended for all Interplay Media Services users, from beginning to advanced.

Understanding the Interplay Media Services
System
The Interplay Media Services system is a software infrastructure on which media services
are layered. Interplay Media Services uses the concept of service providers. A service provider (or provider) is a software program that can perform a particular service, such as
transcoding media or archiving assets. The Interplay Media Services Engine serves as a
broker for services in an Interplay workgroup.
Avid editing applications allow you to work with clips of any frame rate or field motion type
n
(interlaced or progressive) in a project. Clips that do not match the frame rate or field
motion type of the project are known as mixed-rate clips. Avid Interplay supports working
with mixed-rate clips and sequences with mixed-rate clips.
Media Services Engine Components
The software used to manage service providers is composed of two major components: the
Media Services Engine and the Media Services and Transfer Status tool.
The following topics describe these components:
•Understanding the Media Services Engine
•Understanding the Avid Interplay Media Services and Transfer Status Tool
1 Working with the Avid Interplay Media Services System
Understanding the Media Services Engine
The Media Services Engine matches jobs and their corresponding settings with suitable
providers. The Media Services Engine is a repository of job and provider information.
Individual providers select jobs that they are able to process according to the service they
provide.
For example, a Media Composer system (a client) needs a clip transcoded. It sends a request
to the Media Services Engine (the server) with information about the job. The Media
Services Engine places the information in a queue. When a Transcode provider is available
to do the transcoding, it selects the job, gets the information from the Media Services
Engine, and transcodes the media. The Media Services Engine provides status on the job
through the Media Services and Transfer Status tool.
The Media Services Engine should not reside on the same computer as an Avid editing
application. A provider can be installed on the same computer as the Media Services Engine,
depending on the individual provider and the workload and memory usage of the particular
computer.For specific information on configuration requirements, see the Avid Interplay Software Installation and Configuration Guide.
The Avid Interplay Media Services window opens when you start the Media Services
Engine. The window displays current information about the status of the Media Services
Engine, including the host name for the system on which the Media Services Engine resides.
The Media Services Engine uses the host name to identify itself on the network.
22
The following illustration of the Avid Media Services window shows the host name DocMS,
which is the host name of the computer on which the Interplay Media Services Engine is
installed.
Media Services Engine Components
The Avid Interplay Media Services window provides access to the Media Services and
Transfer Status tool through the Admin Tool button. See “Understanding the Avid Interplay
Media Services and Transfer Status Tool” on page 23.
The Avid Interplay Media Services window also provides access to Interplay Media Services
settings through the Settings button. See “Configuring the Media Services Engine” on
page 33.
For information on starting the Interplay Media Services Engine, see “Starting the Interplay
Media Services Engine” on page 36.
Understanding the Avid Interplay Media Services and Transfer
Status Tool
The Avid Interplay Media Services and Transfer Status tool communicates with the Avid
Interplay Media Services Engine to let you manage media services. The Media Services and
Transfer Status tool is installed with the Interplay Media Services Engine software.
The Media Services and Transfer Status tool also includes a tab for monitoring transfers that
use Interplay Transfer. For more information, see the Avid Interplay Transfer Setup and User’s Guide.
23
1 Working with the Avid Interplay Media Services System
The Media Services and Transfer Status tool is installed with the Media Services Engine.
You can install it on another computer from the Individual Optional Installers page of the
Interplay Installation DVD, so that you can manage Interplay Media Services from that
computer. The tool is also installed with Interplay Access, but you need to open the Media
Services Status tab and the Transfer Status tab as separate windows.
The Media Services and Transfer Status tool performs three types of functions:
•Provides detailed information about Media Services, based on lists of jobs, encoders,
profiles, and users.
•Provides controls for managing services and registering providers.
•Provides controls for managing Media Services such as canceling jobs, deleting
provider software, creating or deleting profiles, and creating or deleting users.
The functions you can perform depends on your user rights (see “Using the Users Page” on
page 57). Administrators can perform the following tasks:
•Register and delete providers
•View details on any job
•Delete jobs submitted by any user
•Purge the jobs list
Regular users can perform administrative tasks only on their own jobs.
For more information, see “Using the Media Services and Transfer Status Tool” on page 37.
Understanding the Various Media Services
Interplay Media Services can be distributed to dedicated workstations in a networked
environment, thereby freeing computer resources to perform other tasks.
When you install a Media Services service on a computer, the installation program installs
provider software for that service. You can install the same service on more than one
computer in an Interplay workgroup, and as a result have multiple providers for the same
service.
After you install a service, you use the Media Services and Transfer Status tool to register
the provider of the service. In a workgroup with multiple providers, you need to register
each provider.
The following table lists the services managed by the Media Services Engine.
