Metadata integrations

You can integrate metadata streams as either streams being sent into the XProtect Recording Server or being received from the XProtect Recording Server.

You send metadata into the XProtect Recording Server in order to get it stored, archived and deleted following common definitions in Milestone XProtect video management software.

You retrieve metadata from the XProtect Recording Server in order to search for specific information and to display specific parts on top of video.
