copy advertisement

Post by Enkaavee »

Dear,

We have 2 proppfrexx's running on 2 separate PCs. Can I copy the advertisement from one to another?

Thank you in advance,
Peter

What do you mean by advertisement? The Overlay Scheduler? Your Advert Tracks? You entire Advert Storage Path?
If the latter, yes. Tracks as well.

If you want to use the exact configuration and Advert on both instances, why don't you use a shared network drive and then use the same Advert Storage Path to it on both PCs?

I mean anything from advertising.
Otherwise we always have to create all partners on both computers with all campaigns and also the slots if possible.

A network drive is more difficult because one is a mobile studio and is not always on the network.
It would be easier if we could just sync everything with another PC.

If you have no shared network drive, you can and must define one station as the master where you do you editing etc.
You can then copy the entire Advert Storage Path to your mobile laptop. This way you sync everything, but also overwrite the laptop each time. Which is what you want.

Dear,

I've tried this before to copy the full save path of the ads but it didn't work. Which folders and files should be copied correctly?

The entire Advert Storage Path (which is a folder plus various sub-folders)!
Then you need to point on your laptop to this copied folder as Advert Storage Path.

What exactly is not working? Please make some more clear examples.

Also make sure, that you import your advert tracks, but don't reference them, as in that case those references might not be available on your laptop (of course).
