into columns.
Asset Title A unique and human-readable title that you entered.

Estimated Duration
Caution NEW IN CISCO DMS 5.2.3Before a DMP 4305G or 4400G will render any video asset for playback,
make sure that the video duration is at least 3 seconds. Otherwise, the extreme brevity triggers DMP
failover, which unloads the current playlist or presentation and causes your DMP to render its failover URL instead.
To avoid this behavior altogether, use only video clips whose full duration is 3 seconds or more.
To prevent this behavior temporarily when extremely brief video is somehow essential, disable video failover.
To recover from this behavior, restart the application.
A DMP 4310G does not exhibit this behavior.
The duration value that you entered when you added this asset to your media library, or when you
edited attributes of this asset.
Date Last Modified Time stamp (in the format
DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss) that says when the file was last modified.
