feeds

The container for all the <feed> elements making up a <track>.

With the currentVersion attribute, <feeds> defines the <feed> to use. In an Open Clip, each <feed> is a version of the media.

Attributes

Attribute	Data Type	Allowed Values	Occurrence	Description
type	string	`feeds`	0-1	Type of the element.
version	unsigned integer	`7`	0-1	Version of the XML element.
currentVersion	string	any	0-1	Defines which `<feed>` to use as the current, based on matching `vuid` on each `<feed>` child. If not defined, the current version of the `<versions>` of the `<clip>` will be used.

Note: Optional attributes (0 occurrence attributes) will be inferred from the parent node.

Remarks: Be careful with the currentVersion attribute. It is found in both <feeds> and <versions>. It should be kept in sync to have a properly formatted Open Clip. Its function is to flag a preferred version. In Flame, it indicates the version to display in the MediaHub. If the value is not one of the vuid, Flame will generate No Media feed for the current feed.

Examples

Example 1

This example demonstrates the simplest <feeds> object, which references a single media file.

<feeds>
    <feed vuid="v0" uid="f0">
        <spans>
            <span>
                <path encoding="file">Media/Video1.mov</path>
            </span>
        </spans>
    </feed>
</feeds>

Example 2

Here is an example with multiple versions, where each <feed> represents a different version of the media. The currentVersion attribute specifies which version is active and should be used by the client application. If the currentVersion attribute is not defined, the last <feed> in the list is assumed to be the active version.

<feeds currentVersion='v0'>
    <feed vuid="v0" uid="f0">
        <spans>
            <span>
                <path encoding="file">Media/Video1.[1000-2000].dpx</path>
            </span>
        </spans>
    </feed>
    <feed vuid="v1" uid="f1">
        <spans>
            <span>
                <path encoding="file">Media/Video2.[1000-1500].dpx</path>
            </span>
        </spans>
    </feed>
</feeds>
