"Standard" tab

  1. The options in the General operational settingssection apply to all projects and tasks processed on the local workstation by the Media Publisher module.

    • Timeout in seconds for server-supported transactions defines how many seconds the Media Publisher module waits for responses from Funcd or Scripting Servers.

    • How many days should the entries in the action basket be held? defines how long logs of executed actions remain in the action basket.

    • Number of retries following error controls how often an action is repeated in case of an error before the module cancels processing of the action.

  2. In the Regulate tasks of this station in automatic modesection, you can specify how you want the Media Publisher module to process everything on this workstation.

    • Process tasks from all stations and Process tasks from this station only defines whether jobs in the action basket will only be processed if they were created locally or also if they come from other workstations. If you want the Media Publisher module to run in automatic mode on this workstation and to execute corresponding actions for all users, set Process tasks from all stations here.

    • You can also specify which project types will be processed.
      Grayed out fields cannot be selected as the corresponding scripting engines are not licensed.It can be useful to restrict the project types, for example if you are running different scripting engines on different workstations and you want to improve the communication speed between the relevant module of Media Publisher and the associated local scripting engine. This can also reduce network traffic.
