Installing Avid Media Access

Do the following steps to install Grass Valley AMA (Avid Media Access):

Install SNFS client software on the device hosting the Editing application. This provides guaranteed bandwidth, thereby ensuring smooth playback in the Editing application.
Use CIFS mounted V: volume on standalone K2 Summit system. It is recommended for you to use the latest generation K2 Summit system hardware since older hardware may not have the required hardware resources to sustain smooth playback in the Editing application.
Use media files on removable media if the original folder and file structure are kept intact. If the removable media cannot provide adequate edit playback, transcode or consolidate the media into one of Avids native codec formats.
