Verify your assets in MK.IO

After creating, importing, or running an encoding job on an asset, verify that MK.IO has correctly indexed the content before publishing. This helps you catch storage configuration issues or encoding errors early.

What to check

On the asset page, scroll down to see two key sections:

Steps

Open the asset

Go to Assets and click the asset name you want to verify.

Check Tracks

Scroll to the Tracks section. After an encoding job completes, you should see rows for each video track (labelled by resolution), each audio track, and any subtitle tracks.

Check Files on storage

Select the Files on storage tab. You should see the source files you uploaded and output files generated by encoding, including .ism manifest files, encoded video chunks, and log files.

Troubleshooting

No tracks appear after an encoding job
The encoding job may have failed. Go to Video Processing > Jobs and check the status of the job. If it shows Error, open the output asset and check the highlevel.log file in Files on storage. This file contains diagnostic details you can share with MK.IO support.

Files on storage is empty
Your cloud storage may not be connected correctly, or the asset was created pointing to an empty container.

Files appear but Tracks section is empty
MK.IO detects tracks from encoded output files (manifest + encoded segments). If you see only a raw source file (for example, source.mp4) with no .ism file, the asset has not been encoded yet. Run an encoding job first. See Configure VOD transforms.

Asset looks correct but content does not play
Tracks and files being present means the content is stored and indexed correctly. Playback also requires a streaming endpoint and streaming locator. See Publish content for streaming.

Note: If you have checked the above and still cannot see your assets, visit the MK.IO support portal for further help.
