| − | The <code>add2wowza</code> command is a custom written bash script written by Nathan Kadish. It simply automates the SMIL file creation for each new video. HD videos require four encoded versions, while SD requires 3.

| | | | |
| − | The SMIL file simply lists the links to each encoded file, so this script takes the <code>BASE_NAME</code> and turns that into the given filename for the encodings. Ex - if the Board meeting file coming from LGX is "Board20170724" then when you create the encodings in Adobe Media Encoder you will want to add "_540p" "_480p" and "_360p" to the file names so when they are done, they look like "Board20170724_480p"
| + | In terminal, connect to server. |
| | | | |
| − | === HD Videos (i.e Sports) ===
| + | Run <code>nvidia-smi</code> and make sure you see "java" in the list of running processes. |
