Play Type Mapping Page Manual 3.0

Access to this menu in Betools through: Video On Demand > Content Workflow > Importer > Play Type Mapping

This page allows to configure the Play Type Mapping for Transparent Catchup functionality. As commented in the ADI.xml importing process, it is necessary to set-up some configurable "mapping tables" helping the ADI.xml importing process. These tables will be used to properly assign the PlayType, DRMType and Quality to the "movies" described through the ADI.xml files.
This page provides a mapping from "Packaging" tag in ADI.xml to the corresponding PlayType in MIB.
