Configuring Proxy Config settings: Required
If you received your system pre-configured from Grass Valley, your Proxy Config settings are already configured so you can skip these tasks. Otherwise, work through this section sequentially to configure your Proxy Config settings.
-
In the Control Panel application, open Proxy Config settings.
Note: GV STRATUS versions lower than 3.0 had only one Proxy Server setting. With version 3.0 and higher, the SMB Server and HTTP Server settings must be configured to replace the Proxy Server setting.
-
If your GV STRATUS system stores its proxy on a GV STRATUS Express server, configure as
follows:
-
If your GV STRATUS system stores its proxy on an online or production K2
SAN (A1), configure as follows:
-
If your GV STRATUS system stores its proxy on a dedicated Proxy Storage
system (B1, C1), configure as follows:
-
On the Test Connections tab, click
Test Connections.
The GV STRATUS system populates a list of K2 Storage devices. Verify that this list is correct.
-
Select Enable Proxy Creation.
This allows K2 Summit systems to create proxy assets when high resolution assets are recorded.
-
Select Enable Proxy Encoders.
This allows the system to create proxy assets for any high resolution assets that do not currently have a corresponding low-resolution proxy asset. This setting applies to proxy created by Render Engine servers. If your system instead has Proxy Encoder servers, which are no longer supported, the setting then applies to proxy created by your Proxy Encoder servers.
- Click Save.
- If you changed Location of Proxy Assets, SMB Server, or HTTP Server settings, under supervision of Grass Valley Support, you must purge the GV STRATUS database and make a new K2 storage file system.
