BookingDefinition

A BookingDefinition is a collection of one to many Bookings. It can describe several types of bookings:

Single occurrence: A job planned for a one-time execution.
Recurring job: A job, that is recurring and can be described by a recurring pattern, i.e. a weekly or bi-weekly recording at a given time for a given duration.
Multi Job: A job which runs parallel on several devices, i.e. several camera perspectives during a sports match are recorded at once.
Crash: A job, which is used for unplanned recordings that should start as fast as possible.

In VidiCore, a BookingDefinition is represented as a collection. So all VidiCore objects representing VidiControl objects under that BookingDefinition are part of this collection (e.g. items representing chunks belonging to that BookingDefinition). VidiControl will set the metadata V3_CollectionType for Collections in VidiCore at this collection.
