When everything is set, you can start the transfer of data with the but-
ton TRANSFER DATA. Then the source data will be copied by the DVS
high-speed copying routine to the specified target directory on your
main storage. During this time the statuses of these events will be
changed to ’Is transferring’ (see section “The Tab ’EDL Clips’” on
page 8-31). Once the transfer is complete, the statuses will be set to
’Online RT’ indicating that the material of these events is now available
on your main storage and properly linked to the events.
Capture data…
In case the material for a conforming is not already online stored on a
storage, you can capture it from an externally connected system with
this button. It creates a batch capture list for either the selected or all
unconformed events displayed on the tab EDL Clips that have been
Avoid warnings if

exists
Normally, when transferring data, it is checked
whether the material to be copied already ex-
ists in the target directory. If files/folders are al-
ready present, you will be notified about this by
the software. By activating this check box you
can suppress these notifications, i.e. such mes-
sages will no longer appear and the material
will be overwritten immediately.
Apply to This setting allows you to limit the procedure.
You can perform it either on all clips of an EDL
or on a selection of clips/reels. A selection can
be specified either when the EDL is available in
the timeline (see section “Working with EDLs
from the Timeline” on page 8-22) or in the
conforming mode (see section “The Conform-
ing Mode in General” on page 8-25).
The progress of the copy procedure(s) can be seen on the tab
Job List of Spycer.
Copy processes via the ’transfer data’ feature of the conform-
ing tool can be paused manually on the remote Spycer or au-
tomatically via a real-time process of the DVS software.
However, in the conforming mode they will still be displayed
as ’Is transferring’. Via the tab Job List of Spycer you can
check the state of copy processes and, if required, resume
them.
For further information about the tab Job List, Spycer in gen-
eral as well as the high-speed copying routine see the “Spycer”
user guide.
