Metadata

Export

Use Export to manually export video clip metadata files from the MR-HD100 database to User accessible xml files. The file name of the xml file identifies it as belonging to a specific video clip.

Export creates xml metadata files for specific NLEs, for example Final Cut Pro, or from a Custom user defined template.

NLE - Final Cut Pro

In Final Cut Pro, the User drags or imports the xml file(s) into the Final Cut browser, see Importing Video Clip and Metadata on page 176. The application automatically locates the associated video clips and imports them into the editor browser. From there the User can insert the xml template and video files into the Final Cut timeline. Using the attached metadata, the User can review the metadata in the Final Cut browser and use NLE to search for and through the video clips.

For more information about NLEs refer to Non-Linear Editors (NLEs) on page 171.

ProxSys Media Servers

Using the ProxSys Media Transfer Utility, the User can select the xml files and import them into ProxSys systems. ProxSys automatically locates the video clips associated with the xml file(s) and imports them into the ProxSys system where the metadata provides search capability. For more information refer to the ProxSys Media Transfer Utility User Guide.
