Create `Story` in `MediaMind`.

There are several methods for creating a story within MediaMind:

Automated XML Upload: An XML file placed in a designated SFTP directory can be automatically scanned and processed by MediaMind.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<story>
<story_id>story_20240423_1</story_id>
<title>Story Title</title>
<slug>Story Description-Details</slug>
<type>Video/Audio</type>
<creator>journal@abc.com</creator>
<assign> Pack PID </assign>
<create_time>1736717690000 - in milliseconds since the Epoch</create_time>
<alert>Repeat Story Title</alert>
</story>

API Integration: Our well-documented API allows for programmatic story creation within your existing workflows.

Manual Web Interface: Users can log in to the MediaMind application at http://mediamind.tvunetworks.com/mma to create a new story and assign it to a specific receiver.

story_id will be sent back to user's system to help user binds the PD file with story.

Story Distribution and Selection on TVU One

Once a story is created in MediaMind, it is automatically distributed to all TVU One devices within the designated fleet. On the TVU One touch screen, users can:

Select the desired story from the available list.

Click the "TAG" button to save the story ID and TVU Receiver Peer ID within a sidecar file. All subsequently generated Progressive Download (PD) files will be linked to this story.

Progressive Download and Content Delivery

The PD workflow is initiated, transferring the PD files along with the associated sidecar file to the designated TVU Receiver. The format of the sidecar file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TVUMetaData xmlns="http://www.tvunetworks.com">
  <FileName>filelive/camcorder_FCF30B70D9AB9306_[VALIDADE TVU INTEGRACAO]20210930184015.ts</FileName>

TVU Receiver Processing and Delivery Options

Upon receiving the PD files and sidecar file, TVU Receiver automatically transcodes the PD files into the MXF format, ensuring compatibility with various editing and delivery systems.
The final MXF file and sidecar file can be delivered to our users through several methods:

Upload to a designated FTP server.

Save to a pre-configured Samba folder.

Seamless User Integration through Sidecar File

The sidecar file plays a crucial role in seamlessly linking the delivered content with your users' systems. By parsing the sidecar file, specifically the ExternalStoryId field, your user's system can effortlessly associate the media file with their established content structure.

By selecting the most appropriate delivery method based on your specific requirements, you can achieve a seamless integration between TVU One and your user's systems. This streamlines the entire process, encompassing story creation, distribution, and content delivery.
