NOTE: Kayak has been renamed Xenio Blueprint File Extension in the June 2014 Designer: The Xenio Designer will now save blueprints with a.xenio file extension. Previously saved blueprints which used the.kayak file extension can still be opened in the Designer using the Designer s File > Open menu. However, the files with the older.kayak file extension will not be shown in the Xenio Designer User Files panel. Updating Xenio Plugins Using the Repo Open the Xenio Repo Browser. (From the Transcode Manager Console select Server > Xenio Repo Browser from the main menu.) If you imported plugins during the Transcode Manager 2 installation you will have at least one populated partition. You can update existing partitions or create new ones. Option 1: Add Plugin Updates to an existing partition. This will add the new versions to the partition without deleting the older versions. Currently Transcode Engine systems will only use the newest version of a plugin in a partition when running jobs. To add new plugins to an existing partition from a remote repository: Disable the Read Only option in the Repo Browser and click the Synchronize button Enter the URL of the remote repository. For the Digital Rapids Public Repository enter https://drcsupport.digital-rapids.com/kayakrepo. The current username for the DR Public repo is xenio and the password is xenio. Select the remote repo partition. Remote plugins that are newer than local plugins will be shown. Select the plugins you want to sync and click the "Synchronize Selected" button (lower right). To add new plugins to an existing partition from a Zip file: Download the Plugins zip bundle Select Plugin > Add Plugins (Zip bundle) and select the zip file Option 2: Create a new partition for updated Plugins If you may want to run some Xenio Blueprints using the older version of the plugins, while being able to run other Xenio Blueprints using the newer versions of the plugins, then you should create a new partition. When you have more than one partition, when you launch Xenio Designer you will be asked to select the plugin partition to use. When you create a group in Transcode Manager, you will be asked to select the plugin partition that will be used by Transcode Engines assigned to that group. To create a new partition you must disable the Read Only check box found to the right of the Repository URL line. Select Partition > Add Partition, and enter a partition name. Use the partition dropdown to select your new partition. Add the new plugins to the partition by either sync'ing from a remote repository or from a downloaded plugin Zip file (as detailed above). Partition for Mac Transcode Engines: If you will be using Mac Transcode Engines (for ProRes encoding) then you will need to create a separate partition that can be used by your Mac resources. Only a few plugins are required for ProRes encoding on Mac Transcode Engines, so this partition will be relatively small. Note: You must use the 2013-12 plugin release for Mac Transcode Engines.
