MpegReady Manual (for Content Depot)

DBCAPTURE is a multi-purpose program used by stations to move and copy files from one or more paths, to FTP download and upload files, to decode and encode and transcode files (decompress and compress) and to do xml/rss web publishing and podcasting.

Scanning one or more Content Depot receivers (I.E. IN paths) to move and decode (from mpeg2 to wav) files for playback in customer's existing WireReady systems. INI lines support processing of metadata in the CART CHUNKS so relevant description data shows up in commonly used fields in the WireReady system. The INI file supports preferences, such as whether or not to name files with the CUTID or LONG file name as provided for by NPR's metadata. Files are removed automatically from the Content Depot as they are pulled down so user management or purging is not required. Customers who want to preserve the original mpeg files for later examination/comparison can have the first IN path copy the file to two destinations, one that is converted and the other that is not. Customers who operate more than one server or air studio system can have as many OUT destinations as they like to distribute copies of the programs to as many drives as they prefer for redundancy in their operation.
