[JIL] Using the TOA XML Protocol to control just:in linux v.5.5
just:in linux version 5.5 provides 3rd party systems the ability to trigger start/split/stop recording commands by using the TOA XML based protocol. In this way external systems can take control over just:in linux channels and the Just Control application can still be used for monitoring purposes if needed.
Developers can start by opening a socket connection to the IP address of the just:in linux server and the given channel port (see Channel Settings - Just Control Configuration Panel). Please be aware that every channel of a just:in linux server must have a different channel port and that the channel must be running in order to establish a connection.
Once the connection is up and running, one can send the following commands:
Commands have to end with a null terminator (e.g. “\0”).
Start Recording
<requestRecordingWithMetadata channel="" proposedFilename=""><metadata></metadata></requestRecordingWithMetadata>The “proposedFilename” attribute can be used to pass along the given filename, otherwise the selected naming preset will be used.
Split Recording
<split channel=""></split>Note that the split process will be handled frame accurately to prevent any frame loss during Split Recording operations.
Stop Recording
<stopRecordingWithMetadata channel=""><metadata></metadata></stopRecordingWithMetadata>Please beware that the “tme” and “tjc service on the just:in linux server have to be running and that the given channel has to be configured correctly (Naming, Capture and Destination Preset) and that the channel has a valid signal.
