Operation/Reference Guide
Now that you are in a folder, click on a video/audio file to select it, the selected media is shown with a light
blue border. If the media has metadata then the information in the first metadata section is shown, typically this
is the video synopsis, see FIG. 79. To select multiple media files, use CTRL-click. To select a range of media
use the SHIFT key. Note, the only option available on multiple media files is delete.
The following operations are available in the options drop down menu when you select a video:
Rename Media - rename media
Create Shortcut - create shortcut to media file, this acts like a copy of the media. You can then cut
and paste a shortcut to another location
Publish/Hide - change whether media is published/hidden. Published media is viewable by Tablet
and set-top box users. If user access control is enabled for this archive then Published media is
viewable by Set-top box, tablet, or PC users with view permission to this folder
Cut/Paste - cut a video and then paste it to another location. Note that you can only cut/paste one
