Importing Media from the Hemispheric Institute Digital Video Library

The Hemispheric Institute Digital Video Library (HIDVL) brings together in one place materials that have been available only in small, little-known archives that are inaccessible to scholars and that lack the resources to properly care for and provide access to these extraordinary cultural documents.

Please note that HIDVL content cannot be viewed on iOS devices at this time.

To import media from the HIDVL, click the menu at the top of the navigation on the left side of the window and select "Import". Next, click "Affiliated archives" and then "Hemispheric Institute Digital Video Library". The Hemispheric Institute Importer will appear, with an option to perform a search of the archive.

Once search results are returned, you can preview individual files by clicking their "Preview" links on the right, or select one or more videos to import by clicking their associated checkboxes. Then, clicking the "Import selected media" button at the bottom will bring the media's metadata into Scalar.
