Set up a Task to Generate Image Hashes

To generate image hashes

  1. Create a new configuration or open an existing configuration to send to Media Server with the process action. Alternatively, you can modify the Media Server configuration file (mediaserver.cfg).

  2. In the [Analysis] section, add a new analysis task by setting the AnalysisEngineN parameter. You can give the task any name, for example:

    [Analysis]
    AnalysisEngine0=ImageHash
  3. Create a new configuration section to contain the task settings, and set the following parameters:

    Type The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to ImageHash.
    Input (Optional) The name of the track to generate image hashes from.
    Region (Optional) To create a hash from a region of the image, instead of the entire image, specify the region.
    RegionUnit (Optional) The units used to specify the position and size of the region of interest (pixel or percent).
  4. Save and close the configuration file. If you modified the Media Server configuration file, you must restart Media Server for your changes to take effect.
