Create asset

The user can create asset or add a file in five ways.

Image – user interface for asset creation

In each of the ways to add asset, the asset is added to a folder (within the workspace or group) that is currently selected (in the picture above, under a folder named Folder). In the event that the selected asset is not a folder, the content is added to the folder in which the currently displayed asset is located. The criteria for adding the content into the structure is always the currently displayed asset.

Ways to add content:

1. By pressing the button (top left in the picture above). In this mode, the user can select multiple files of different types (video, audio, image, etc.). For each selected file the asset with title is created, as well some fields are filed and in some content types of files some additional actions is taken (more in the chapter Automatic detection of file type). User can also upload files by bulling them over that button.

2. By pressing the plate Add Content (bottom left in the image above), which is located next to the existing assets. This mode is identical to pressing the green button Add Content. Users can also drag the desired files to the plate and the file will automatically uploaded.

3. By selecting option Add file(s), to which the user can access by pressing the green button, which is located next to the button Add Content (see image above). This mode is identical to the first two.

4. By selecting option Add Assert, to which the user can access by pressing the green button, which is located next to the button Add Content (see image above). In this mode, new empty asset is created, which means that most of the fields are empty. After pressing the button, the edit asset interface will appear (more in chapter Edit asset).

5. By selecting option Add Folder, to which the user can access by pressing the green button, which is located next to the button Add Content (see image above). In this mode, new empty asset is created, which has set the folder functionality. A folder is created. After pressing the button, the edit asset interface will appear (more in chapter Edit asset).

All five ways to add asset are enabled or appear if the user has the right to add asset/file to a particular workspace or group.

Edit asset

The user can access the edit asset interface in three ways.

1. If the user has displayed asset (part of the user interface to display content), which wants to edit, he can access the edit asset interface by clicking on the edit button or press the button three dots and then choose the option Edit asset (the button at the top right in the image below). Both buttons are available to the user only if he has the right to edit the displayed asset (right Asset/Update or he is the owner of the asset).

   In the upper right corner, the asset title is displayed. In the center are the various tabs. The tabs are visible depending on user rights. The usual user with right to edit can see the General and Display tab, in some cases also Cuepoints tab. Below them are the fields to edit the title, a short description, a description and other fields (more in chapter Explanation of individual fields on the asset). On the right side of the interface, several modules are displayed. Module with basic options, module for adding media file, module to change the thumbnails and other modules that are displayed depending on the type of uploaded files (more in subchapter Explanation of different tabs with fields).

   The user can at any time save the corrected fields. This is done by pressing the green button and wait until the word Updated! (image below).

   

   The user can switch in to display mode by pressing the button . Fields that have been corrected since the last save will not be saved!

3. The third option is to edit asset via tools for multiple editing, which is described in the next section (in chapter Edit selected assets) and is similar to the classical editing.

Edit selected assets

The platform also allows user to edit multiple asset simultaneously. The user is able to perform selection if he has opened Side List or Table view on list of assets. In this two views user can perform assets selections and then on them perform operations. If user select one or more asset in the top right corner of the list of assets view, a new button with three dots will appear. If the user wants to edit the selected assets, he must shoos option Edit assets (image below).

  Final step is required for implementation of trimmed video. User should re-transcode trimmed video, by pressing the button (module to upload files). Trimmed video is translated into a number of different qualities, which are then visible to other users.

  In the event that the user wants to restore video to its original length, he must click on the button Restore form original, which is located in the upper right corner of the module to review and edit media file. After button is pressed, original preview video will be created. In order to finally restore to original video is also required to press the button Re-Transcode.

  Trimming can be performed several times.

• Transcoding

  Transcoding is intended to convert video files (high quality) in several video files of various qualities (lower quality). These qualities are used in the video content in such a way that the player adjusts the video quality depending on the current bandwidth of the link (connection quality). The lower quality of the connection reflected in the lower quality of the video content.

  The platform allows user to set six different qualities or video encoding. Which qualities will be created in transcoding process, is specified in the global settings of the platform.

  Encoding	Resolution	Bitrate	Frames per second (fps)
  01	1920x1080	3500	25
  02	1280x720	1800	25
  03	640x360	1200	25
  04	400x224	600	25
  05	400x224	300	25
  06	400x224	110	25

  Table – parameters of specific encodings

  Under tab Media, within the edit asset interface, user can monitor the transcoding progress (see image below).

  

  Image – tab Media with transcoding progress

  During the transcoding, video content is not visible, but the information window is displayed (see image below).

  

  Image – information window on transcoding asset

  Two fields illustrate the user that transcoding is still in progress. This is a field under the tab Media and field within the module to upload file (picture below). Asset status is set to state Transcoding.

  After transcoding is completed, user can re-transcode video file. This is done by pressing the button Re-Transcode under the tab Media or within the module to upload file.

  The functionality is available to users who have the right Other/Transcode.

• Add watermark on video

  Functionality of adding watermark on video enables later enrichment video content with different logo or other visual materials. The functionality is available to users who have the right Other/Transcode.

  The user (who has this right), after uploading video file, can also upgrade video with the watermark. User can add watermark by using module for review and editing of media file inside the edit asset interface (image below). First, the user should upload the watermark in the field Watermark image. After a successful upload Add Watermark button will appear. After button is pressed, new preview video with watermark will be created.

  

  Image – module to add watermark

  Final step is required for implementation of watermarked video. User should re-transcode watermarked video, by pressing the button (module to upload files). Watermarked video is translated into a number of different qualities, which are then visible to other users.

  In the event that the user wants to restore video to its original state, he must click on the button Restore form original, which is located in the upper right corner of the module to review and edit media file. After button is pressed, original preview video will be created. In order to finally restore to original video is also required to press the button Re-Transcode.

Delete assets from bin

When a user deletes the asset, the asset is transferred to the Bin, where waiting on final deletion. Final deletion also lead to the deletion of all files that have been uploaded to specific asset or were associated with it. Only system administrator can empty the Bin.

Placement of assets

The chapter refers to the procedures for moving the assets within the platform.

Create a folder

Any asset can be moved into a folder (if the user has the right to edit the content). This means that asset will be under other asset, which is folder. User can change asset into folder by selecting check box Folder in the edit asset interface and then save changes. On the list of assets, the folder asset will be displayed with the square plus (picture below).

Image – folder in the grid view
