46 K2 Storage System Version 3.2.74 Release Notes October 19, 2008
Working with the K2 Coder
Using the K2 Coder
These instructions assume that you have configured the K2 Coder as directed by the
configuration procedures earlier in this section.
On the K2 Coder you can find the pre-configured folders at V:\K2Coder. In this
directory you will find the SourceFiles folder and the DestFiles folder. If you
configured an Import Watch Folder for HD, you will also find the HDSourceFiles
folder. These are the only folders that you need to access as you use the K2 Coder. Do
not alter the names or locations of any of the folders in V:\K2Coder.
To import/transcode files into the K2 system, do one of the following:
• If you import SD only, place the SD files in the SourceFiles folder.
• If you import HD only, place the HD files in the SourceFiles folder.
• If you import both SD and HD, place SD files in the SourceFiles folder and place
HD files in the HDSourceFiles folder.
Open Carbon Admin and on the Active Jobs tab, monitor transcode/import progress.
Then find the K2 clip in the bin configured as the Import Watch Folder K2 bin.
To export/transcode clips out of the K2 system, in AppCenter place the clips in the
bin configured as the Export Watch Folder K2 bin. Open Carbon Admin and on the
Active Jobs tab, monitor progress. Then access the exported files in the DestFiles
folder.
