You can also get information about an asset by looking at its MIME type. The MIME type
describes either the type of information contained in the primary representation file or
the application in which the primary representation file was created.
The MIME type for
this image asset
is shown here.
You can search for a specific MIME type; if you use that search often, you can save it as
a Smart Search. See Searching in Final Cut Server for more information.
About Productions
Productions are containers you can use to organize asset aliases and other productions.
You can nest productions inside each other to create complex hierarchies of productions.
The assets that are available through the Assets pane in the main window of
Final Cut Server cannot be copied or moved into a production. Instead, when you upload,
move, or copy an asset into a production, an alias that points to the original asset appears
in the production. An alias looks very similar to an asset; its distinguishing feature is the
alias icon that appears on the top-left corner of the asset (in Thumbnails view) or in the
leftmost column (in List view). For more information about asset icons and thumbnail
and list view, see List View.
