Installing Pipeline
Software
Telestream recommends that Pipeline Control be installed on a computer that is not
hosting FlipFactory, Vantage, Agility, Episode Engine, or other media processing
applications: intense disk and CPU consumption can interfere with proper operation of
both applications.
Be sure to review your platform, system and workflow requirements before installing
Pipeline software (Chapter 4, Implementing Pipeline Workflows on page 25). When
you install or upgrade Pipeline client software, you may have to upgrade the firmware
revision in your Pipeline hardware.
Pipeline Control software captures data coming from one or more Pipeline channels,
and write this data to disk in real-time. To prevent interference with the Pipeline
Control, any process (such as real-time anti-virus scanning) should be disabled while
Pipeline Control is in use. Other processes that periodically run (such as operating
updates) should also be disabled.
Pipeline Control for Windows is distributed from Telestream’s Web site (www.telestream.net) as an EXE
file, and is also distributed on the Pipeline CD. After verifying that you have all of the required subsystems
(below), download or open the installer and run it. Follow the steps to install Pipeline Control for Windows.
Note
Pipeline Control requires local Admin privileges for installation.
