Installing and Configuring Avid Thunder Select
The Thunder Select plug-in allows iNEWS users to view thumbnails of video items on the
Thunder and to drag-and-drop those items directly into an iNEWS story.
To install and configure Avid Thunder Select:
1. Ensure that the iNEWS client software is not running.
2. At the iNEWS Workstation, run the Avid Thunder Select installation program called
ThunderSelectClient.exe
.
3. Copy the
ThunderMOS.ini
file from the
C:\Thunder
directory on your Thunder device
to your local
C:\Thunder
directory.
If you do not have a
ThunderMOS.ini
file, create it in the
C:\Thunder
directory, open
it, and enter the full UNC path to the the
ThunderMOS.cfg
file. For more information,
see “Creating the ThunderMOS.ini File” on page 175.
4. Log in to iNEWS.
5. Select Tools > Plugins > Avid Thunder Select.
If Avid Deko Select is also installed on the workstation, the menu option will be Tools >
Plugins > Avid Graphics Select.
The first time you open Avid Thunder Select, three errors will appear.
6. Click OK.
The Setup Menu dialog box opens.
7. If it doesn’t, click the Options button in the top right corner of the plug-in.
