Metadata Sets

Open the Configuration Panel, select a Device and switch to the Metadata Sets Tab.

...

  1. Metadata Sets List: List of all available Metadata Sets for the selected Device. Add and remove (selected) Metadata Set.

  2. StartUpXML: Content of the selected StartUpXML.

  3. Extension: Choose between xml and json.

  4. ExportXML: Content of the selected ExportXML.

Add a new Metadata Set

Go to the Metadata Sets Tab and use the "Plus"-Button Plus (“+”) button to add a new Metadata Set. Set a name for the new Metadata Set. Then search and choose the StartUp- and ExportXML and use the "Create"-Button to create the Metadata Set.

After creating the Metadata Set the content of both, StartUpXML and ExportXML, can be seen when selecting the Metadata Set.

If you want to copy a Metadata Set from one machine to another, then just go to “/Library/Application Support/ToolsOnAir/Just In” and copy the specific xml-Preset from the StartUp- and ExportXML folder.
