Harris File Interchange presentation from the ... - SBE Chapter 24

So……
• Know your particular device/s file type capabilities
– NLE’s can generally handle almost any file type in or out but this is where
the confusion starts (too many options across too many file types)
– Servers are less capable on file i/o. If attempting import/export for the first
time, get a sample file to the manufacturer for testing. If you don’t have the
analysis tools, they certainly will (should!) be able to help you debug the
file’s headers, containers, wrappers and essence.
– DG FastChannel/Pathfire, Pitchblue file content need transcoding as most
servers cannot directly import these files due to either/or the MPEG-4
AVC/H.264 files at a data rate of 15 Mbps or more AND the handling of the
metadata for the CBS automation and trafficking needs required parsing for
this file type. Expect future device maturity.
– If it has scripting/macro capabilities…….make/take time to exploit them.
