Abstract:
A method and apparatus prepare an asset for placement on a server, the asset including a media file and corresponding metadata elements. The media file is received, and it is automatically determined whether all required metadata elements are associated with the received media file. If all of the required metadata elements are not associated with the received media file, it is determined which of the required metadata elements are missing, and the missing metadata elements are required to be added before the asset is placed on the server.
