Programs
A program is the bottom level of the content hierarchy. A program is a
metadata “wrapper” that controls access to resources published using
Polycom VMC 1000. Programs aggregate related streaming files and
downloadable files from the Content Repository for online presentation. There
can be several Content Repository items associated with a single program. For
example, a program can contain the same video in multiple bit rates, or
non-related video files with different bit rates. Programs are owned by the
owner of the channel in which the program resides.
Groups
Groups allow Site Administrators to create groups of users and assign roles to
them. These groups are also available to Site Administrators to assign to
programs to limit access of the program to specified groups.
Content Repository
The Content Repository is a virtual file system for all streaming and
downloadable files uploaded into the Polycom VMC 1000. In order to create a
program with streaming files, or streaming and downloadable files, you must
first populate your Content Repository. In the Content Repository, you can:
• Upload new resources.
• View or edit information associated with existing resources.
• Organize Content Repository items within Content Repository folders.
• View shared resource files.
When you create a program, you are prompted to choose resource files from
the Content Repository. The Site Administrator and the Content Owner can
both manage the Content Repository. The Site Administrator can view all
resources. Content Owners can only view shared or public resources, and only
the private resources they own or manage (streaming, downloadable,
thumbnail, etc).
NOTE: In a domain that uses an LDAP realm, groups are read from the datastore,
and cannot be modified, nor can additional groups be manually added through the
system.
