 The design allows to run the webinterface in a separate network from Users and FFAStrans perspective.
 In Simple environments of course, the webinterface runs on the same server as FFAStrans does. \\ \\

-  *1: Instance name in case you have multiple installations
-  *2: Logout Button allows to exit from the current session. Only works when you activated "STATIC_USE_WEB_AUTHENTIFICATION" in Server configuration.
-  *3: Navigation Menu. Use the User manager to restrict the Items a user can access.
-  *4: Running Job's Toolbar allows to interact on the current job. Abort, Pause or Resume a job.

-For the File upload, please note that this is only HTML5 file upload so it will be relatively slow and somewhat instable when it comes to Files bigger than some Gigabytes. Transferring huge files should be done using technologies that are intended for it (e.g. NFS, SMB, FTP etc...).

+==== Segment submission and processing ====
-=== Submit all selected files into one job for concat/stitch ===
+Currently since Webint 1.4.0.38, you need to use the player to set in/out points.
+Of course your workflow must add support for this special type of source.
-In FFAStrans workflow editor - workflow properties, you can enter a workflow description. Add the keyword webui_stitch. If this word is found in the workflow description, all selected files are submitted as json array into s_source variable and you can use e.g. the "Foreach" Processor to process all Files separately.
+In case of segments, Webinterface will submit a special predefined variable called "o_source", this is a complex JSON object containing all the needed information.
-----------------------------------------
-==== User Manager Menu====
+**Simple example:**
+In this case, we just showcase a minimal workflow, due to the nature of ffmpeg "concat" functionality it will only work correctly with I-Frame only source files.

+{{ :webinterface:emcodem_concat_1.4.3_ffmpeg_cuts_no_transcode.json |}}
-This menu is only useful if "STATIC_USE_WEB_AUTHENTIFICATION"(Server Configuration Menu) is enabled. \\
-The purpose is to filter Webinterface access rights based on users. Here is the procedure :
-  - Create first your groups (admin, users, monitoring,etc).
-  - Click on a group (admin for example) and assign rights (drag a grid row from left to right).
-  - Create admin user(name and password), click on it and drag a group from left to right to link user to a group.
-  - Repeat the procedure to link each user to his group.
+**More complex, frame accurate example:**
+This is a complex showcase where we use Avisynth to cut the segments frame accurately and after that, stitch all source files into one.
-You can use filters per group(filter rules), see inbuilt documentation for details.

+==== Submit all selected files as array into one job for concat/stitch ====
-This menu allows to configure the Webinterface : Header name, browse locations, port number, etc. Click "Save" after making your settings.\\
+In FFAStrans workflow editor - workflow properties, you can enter a workflow description. Add the keyword webui_stitch. If this word is found in the workflow description, all selected files are submitted as json array into s_source variable and you can use e.g. the "Foreach" Processor to process all Files separately.
-See inbuilt documentation for settings details.\\
-(See [[webinterface#instance Name|Instance Name]] if your header's name is too large)
+  * Note that webui_stitch keyword in the workflow description will cause %s_source% variable to be a JSON array of file paths or URLs.
