Back up the Media Library

Before beginning the process of transcoding media from Mpeg2 to FlexRes it is vital to back up the media library.

To create a back-up, follow these steps.

Locate the media folder:

The STRATA Path is listed in the advanced tab of Media Manage:

Locate this folder on your Hippotizer system from the STRATA Folder and copy it. If there is enough space, making a copy to the same drive is ok, otherwise the copy must be made to an external drive or USB stick.

!The size of the media folder will increase when it is converted from Mpeg2 to FlexRes. Be sure to leave at least 6 Times the media folder space free on the media drive. For example, if the media folder is 5GB, be sure there is 30GB free on the media drive before proceeding.
