First at all, many thanks for the really nice project!
I have managed to install alongside nebula-setup and Firefly. I have doubts about how to ingest/import the video files. I did suceed setting up a watch service and the Assets are created but none of them are accessible on Firefly.
What am I missing ?

Many thanks again

Hello Daniel,
since you are the first who managed to get so far even though the documentation is far from complete, we should send you a T-Shirt or something :). By default, "watch" service creates assets in "Incoming" folder, so if you have Firefly up and running, you should see them if you switch to incoming view using a drop-down menu next to the search button.

Unfortunately, the view for "incoming" assets is missing in the default configuration (my bad - sorry - i'll fix it in the following update), but you can simply add it in your template file:

data["views"][13] = {
    "title" : "Incoming",
    "position" : 13,
    "folders" : [12], 
    "columns" : [
        "qc/state",
        "title",
        "duration",
        "mtime"
    ]
}

After you rewrite your configuration, restart the hub service and firefly and you should be able to see your assets (without video preview - I need to document the process of creating lowres proxy files, so please stay tuned).

Hi @martastain . Thanks, I'll accept the T-shirt ;) The workaround works and I can see my assets both on Firefly and nebula-frontend, really nice!

Next step is to be able to play the media...Could you help me with that ? CasparCG is running (version 2.2 Beta)
thanks and once again, congrats fo the great work!
