The following diagram shows a simple configuration for performing OCR on a video stream and sending the results to IDOL Server. The setup includes an ingest engine, an analysis engine, and an output engine. These are usually the minimum required for any configuration.
Process
action, which starts a new session. The Video ingest engine receives video from the source specified in the action. It produces an image track and audio track.A Media Server configuration that matches this process is shown below.
OCR
task includes the parameter Input=Default_Image
, which specifies that the input for the OCR task is the first image track from the ingest engine. Setting this parameter is optional, because the default value of the Input
parameter for engines that require images is Default_Image
.IDOLOutput
task includes the parameter Input=OCR.Result
. This specifies that the input for the IDOL output task is the Result
track from the OCR
task.[Session] Engine0=Ingest Engine1=OCR Engine2=IDOLOutput [Ingest] Type=Video [OCR] Type=OCR Input=Default_Image [IDOLOutput] Input=OCR.Result Type=IDOL Mode=time OutputInterval=60s XslTemplate=./xsl/toIDX.xsl
