Using Quick Send with Asset Management Modules
MediaCentral Cloud UX provides a “Quick Send” feature for Asset Management assets for a quick transfer of material to a certain destination.
Before you can use the Quick Send feature, Quick Send processes must be created and configured in MediaCentral Asset Management. Starting with version 2022.3, Asset Management systems on which the Production kit is installed provide a default Quick Send process (“Quicksend Restore to Production Mgmt”) that lets you restore an individual asset to Production Management. Asset Management systems without Production kit do not include default Quick Send processes.
If Quick Send processes are configured, the Quick Send button below the monitor in the Media Viewer provides a Quick Send menu item for a fast process creation for an asset. As opposed to the Actions Menu, Quick Send offers a limited set of processes for Asset Management assets. If no process type is applicable, the menu shows “No items.” When you create a Quick Send process, you select the process type and attach the asset that is open in the Media Viewer to the process, but you do not need to provide additional data in a Create Process dialog box. Information about In and Out points, the restore or export target, and other default settings of the attributes of the configured Quick Send template are passed to the process.
For more information, see the Avid MediaCentral | Asset Management Quicksend Restore to Production Mgmt Process Reference.
To create a Quick Send process from the Asset Editor:
1. Load an Asset Management video asset.
2. Set the In and Out marks and the position indicator in the Media Viewer timeline.
3. Click the Quick Send button, select Quick Send and the process type (for example, “Partial Restore to Production Mgmt”).
The process is created and shown in the Process app. For more information, see
Working with the Process App.
If the process requires you to complete additional user actions, the corresponding task is shown in the Tasks app. For more information, see
Working with the Tasks App (MediaCentral Asset Management).
