Chapter 12 Administering and maintaining the K2 SAN

On the K2 Coder you can find the pre-configured folders at V:\K2Coder. In this

directory you will find the SourceFiles folder and the DestFiles folder. If you

configured an Import Watch Folder for HD, you will also find the HDSourceFiles

folder. These are the only folders that you need to access as you use the K2 Coder. Do

not alter the names or locations of any of the folders in V:\K2Coder.

To import/transcode files into the K2 system, do one of the following:

• If you import SD only, place the SD files in the SourceFiles folder.

• If you import HD only, place the HD files in the SourceFiles folder.

• If you import both SD and HD, place SD files in the SourceFiles folder and place

HD files in the HDSourceFiles folder.

Open Carbon Admin and on the Active Jobs tab, monitor transcode/import progress.

Then find the K2 clip in the bin configured as the Import Watch Folder K2 bin.

To export/transcode clips out of the K2 system, in AppCenter place the clips in the

bin configured as the Export Watch Folder K2 bin. Open Carbon Admin and on the

Active Jobs tab, monitor progress. Then access the exported files in the DestFiles

folder.

Only clips new to the bin are exported/transcoded. If there are clips in the Export

Watch Folder K2 bin that were present prior to configuring the bin as the Export

Watch Folder, those clips are not exported/transcoded.
