the Bonjour friendly name assigned to the Pipeline device. This name defaults to Pipeline_XXXX where
XXXX is the Pipeline's serial number.

name is contained within the Identity element of the returned XML descriptor. Config command example:
http://<Pipeline IP Address>/command.cgi?config.

Anamorphic Flag
Produced when video is specified as 16 x 9 format because the 16 x 9 check box has been selected on the
live page for proper video display. Any EDL produced with this option checked will also set the
ANAMORPHIC flag to TRUE:
*TELESTREAM_METADATA: ANAMORPHIC TRUE
This flag insures that anamorphic flags are set in appropriate output files in FlipFactory.
Abort Switch for Dropped Frames
A true value will abort the process if a frame is dropped, false will continue even if a frame is dropped
*TELESTREAM_METADATA: ABORT <true/false>
Example: *TELESTREAM_METADATA: ABORT false
