Workstation: Remote Workstation
built 788 days ago
Any Remote Workstation can take control of one (or more) Image Server video channels. All Workstations, as well as the local Image Server GUI, have equal priority, and each continually displays Image Server channel activity.

There have been several attempts to produce a workstation-like machine specifically for the lowest possible price point as opposed to performance. One approach is to remove local storage and reduce the machine to the processor, keyboard, mouse and screen. In some cases, these diskless nodes would still run a traditional OS and perform computations locally, with storage on a remote server; in other cases (on machines that would today be described as thin clients), the local device would fill a niche much closer to a terminal than a computer, displaying tasks executing on the remote server. These approaches are intended not just to reduce the initial system purchase cost, but lower the total cost of ownership by reducing the amount of administration required per user.

A remote workstation can access one or more video channels of an Image Server to perform ingest, trimming, playlisting, traffic operations or monitoring of server activities. Full control for manual play-to-air is ... available.
