# Classify Images

To classify images or video frames

1. Create a new configuration to send to Media Server with the `process` action, or open an existing configuration that you want to modify.

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

       [Session]
       Engine0=Ingest
       Engine1=Classification

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 `ImageClassification`.
   Input | (Optional) The image track to process. If you do not specify an input track, Media Server processes the first track of the correct type that is produced by the ingest engine.
   Classifier | The classifier to use for classification. Media Server categorizes images into the classes in this classifier.
   ClassificationThreshold | (Optional) The minimum confidence score necessary for Media Server to output a classification result. Any classification result with a confidence score below the threshold is discarded.

   For example:

       [Classification]
       Type=ImageClassification
       Classifier=Vehicles
       ClassificationThreshold=15

   For more information about these parameters, see Image Classification.

4. Save and close the configuration file. OpenText recommends that you save your configuration files in the location specified by the `ConfigDirectory` parameter.
