# MediaServiceImpl

Manages the static resources and FFmpeg libraries that are required to analyze rich media files. All processors that require media analysis resources have a “Media Service” property that must reference an instance of this service.

## Properties

Name | Default Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
Media Static Data Directory |  | The path to the directory that contains static data for rich media analysis. Use the `staticdata` directory, included in the Media Server zip package.
FFmpeg Directory |  | The path to the directory that contains FFmpeg. Use the `libs` directory, included in the Media Server zip package.
Database type | None | Specifies the type of database to connect to. Some types of media analysis require access to training data that is stored in a database. The training data must be generated using an IDOL Media Server. For information about how to set up a database and populate it with training data, refer to the Media Server Administration Guide.
Database Connection String |  | The connection string to use to connect to the MySQL or PostgreSQL database that contains training data.
Database File |  | The path of the database file, created using an IDOL Media Server, that contains training data. Micro Focus recommends using an external database (MySQL or PostgreSQL) in production environments.
