Managing conference outputs

Site managers and editors of the conference can:

Add new on demand outputs for that conference. The conference outputs will be added into the Offline Transcoding Queue for processing and transcoding will start when all the conferences higher in the queue have been processed. Note that the total number of outputs can now exceed the six permitted when a conference is created; however, adding outputs puts an added transcoding load on the Content Server and uses more disk space.

Delete outputs that are no longer needed by deselecting them and clicking Save. Note that files sent to external servers, for example, Podcast Producer or QuickTime Streaming Server, are not deleted off those servers but this can be done manually, if required.

Change previously chosen layouts, formats and sizes.

To manage outputs:

1.Go to View Conferences > Recorded conferences.

2.Click Edit and then select Manage outputs.

3.Update how you want to make the conference available by selecting the appropriate check boxes. Selecting a check box opens a section of the page:

o Outputs to view in the Content Server web interface o Outputs to download for portable devices

o Outputs to download for general purpose

o Outputs for distribution to Podcast Producer or iTunes U

4.Edit the fields for each opened section using the table below.

5.Click Save.
