This applies to all YSTV edit machines

  • Tempvideo drives are NOT backed up! If you fail to copy your work to PendingEdits you MAY loose it!
  • If you are not going to edit your show for 7 days or more it should be deleted from TempVideo.
  • If your show if finished and on the YSTV website, the edit should be copied to FinishedShows and Deleted from BOTH TempVideo and PendingEdits.

Windows Edit Machines

(The drives mentioned are located in My Computer)

  • You should log on using the YSTV account for which the password is 'ystvuser'.
  • If you are starting a new edit, this and any raw footage should be done on TempVideo (D drive).
  • If you are continuing a previous edit, anything that is not up to date on TempVideo should be copied across from PendingEdits (P drive).
  • Note a second TempVideo drive mapped to L, this is the TempVideo drive on the other edit machine. Do NOT try and edit from this drive!
  • Once you have finished your edit copy the something.prproj file to PendingEdits.
  • If you have started a new edit, copy all raw footage, project files, and other resources to PendingEdits.

The iMac

(The drives mentioned here are located through the Finder application, and then the device YSTV's iMac at the bottom left. TempVideo is in Macintosh HD)

  • You should log on using the YSTV User account, for which there is NO password.
  • There is currently NO capture facility on this machine! This must be done on the Windows Machines.
  • You should then copy your raw footage onto the TempVideo area ready to start your edit.
