h6. 5.\- Opencast Matterhorn Connection
One of the key features of Galicaster is the connection to the publishing platform. If you are using Matterhorn as your media publishing and distribution system, you need to configure Galicaster to work as a Capture Agent and connect it to your core machine. Here are some tips to do so:
* Your Galicaster unit needs access to your Matterhorn Core network.
* Use a valid *host* URL. It may be a fully-qualified name or simply an IP address.
* If your Matterhorn Core is not running in the default port (80), then you need to explicitly include it in the URL (i.e. {{http://<host_name_or_ip>:8080}}).
* The use of the {{http://}} prefix is mandatory.
* You need to use a Matterhorn account which authenticates via Digest (usually, this account is set up in the {{config.properties}} file in your Matterhorn server). A regular account will not work.
* Remember to activate the connection in Galicaster (in the configuration file, section {{ingest}}, value {{active}}).
* A wrong workflow will raise an error in Matterhorn. Please make sure you use a workflow name that exists in the machine you connect Galicaster to.
* *Workflow parameters are available but optional. A unexisting or wrong parameter won't affect the process, a mistaken value will be considered as "False".*
* Check your Galicaster unit is registered as a Capture Agent in the Admin Tools section of your Matterhorn installation.
** The log (in {{/tmp/galicaster.log}}) will record any problem occurring on the connection to the Matterhorn server.
If your Galicaster is registered as a Capture Agent you should be able to receive the recording schedule, if any, and ingest any recordings in Galicaster to the Matterhorn Core. If this is not so, please review all the steps above and try again. The logs in Matterhorn and Galicaster will give you the hints to know what is failing.
