This parameter allows the extraction of metadata information and the creation of XML
files when working with files not associated to XML files, such as .mxf and .mov.
Refer to section ‘AutoImport’ on page 31 for a detailed description.
Parameters for Publish
Publish Mode
Three Publish Modes are available:
• Keeps original UmID
• Defines a new UmID
• Defines a new UmID and VarID
You can choose to keep the original file UmID or to generate a new one.

the selection made in the Scan Folder tab will impact the one made in the User

• The Keeps original UmID option automatically selects the Publish Clips with
Original UmID box and the Publish Clips with Original VarID box, and vice versa.
• The Defines a New UmID option automatically deselects the Publish Clips with
Original UmID box and selects the Publish Clips with Original VarID box, and vice
versa.
• The Defines a New UmID and VarID option automatically deselects the Publish
Clips with Original UmID box and the Publish Clips with Original VarID box, and
vice versa.
Location
The Location area indicates in which locations the files will be published.
Refer to section ‘Location’ on page 31 for a description of the color code.
Note
In the Publish process, the XML metadata file must be published prior to the
backup file.

If the job failed after 5 tries, the files will be moved to ‘Done_Failed’.
