Gaps
...
Gap Playlist (just:play only): This Playlist will be played continuously in a loop as long as no other Playlist is defined in just:play for the Channel. The Playlist may contain any combination of Video clips, (simple and FX) Graphics, as well as Live Video input. Do not loop or use infinite live events in a default Gap Playlist. Loops will be done automatically, and infinite live events could lead to
...
misbehavior during a Gap.
Filler Movie: The Video defined here will be played in a loop in case the
...
scheduled Video cannot be found or
...
cannot be decoded. Make sure to select a filler Video which can be played on the machine running Just Out and that it is available using the same path. In addition, the Video frame rate must match the frame rate of the Channel. Otherwise,
...
it will not be played out in realtime which also causes
...
unsynchronized playout.
Watch Folder
...
Schedule Watch Folder: When enabled you can drop a ToolsOnAir compliant (!) XML file into this folder and Just Connect will automatically read the contents of this file. Just Connect will attempt to add the Playlist to the current schedule. A Playlist may only be added to the schedule if it does not overlap any existing Playlists in the schedule. If Just Connect is able to add the Playlist to the schedule it will also automatically send the updated schedule to any Just Out engines and any just:live/just:play user interfaces viewing the Channel.
Archive Files: Archive files allows you to define a folder where all Playlists will be saved, which
...
have been dropped into the watch folder before.
Validate auto-duration Playlists: When Playlists are dropped into Just Connect's watch folder, Just Connect can automatically validate that the duration specified for the Playlists match their contents. This is done by reading the duration of each Video in a Playlist and summing the total duration. Note that this process can take some time to complete, depending on the number of Video items in each Playlist.
User Interfaces
...
By default, all interface clients can connect to a Channel based on the configured user rights. It is also possible to restrict the interfaces which are able to connect to a Channel. This is useful in situations where only certain machines should get access to a Channel. This can be done in the User Interfaces tab.
...
Infinite Graphics allow for showing a still image or a realtime FX Template on a FX Layer. Additionally, you can automatically hide an infinite graphic based on Finder color colour tags, or based on your personal preference using the Inspector in just:live or just:play. This may be useful for commercial breaks, for example.
...
Auto-hide Finder colour: Select the colour here which will be used to automatically deactivate the playout of the infinite FX element, in case the movie has the same colour defined as a colour tag on Finder level. This function removes the graphics only initially, after the movie has been added to the rundown. Once scheduled, the graphics can be turned on/off independent of the colour tag and changing the colour tag of the movie also does not change the visibility of the graphics.
...
In the user interface, the colour tag will be reflected in the Library and the Workbench. The Hide FX Layer checkbox will automatically be enabled for all files with the corresponding color colour tag.
...
Fade in/Fade out (seconds): Define the duration, the infinite graphics should be faded In/out each time it goes On/Off air.
Choose: Click “Choose” and select a still image or a realtime FX Template (qtz QTZ or composition:builder file) to load it automatically to the selected FX Layer. Click “X” to remove the still image or realtime FX Template from the selected FX Layer.
Preview: In case you defined a still image as Infinite FX, you can see it in the preview window. Realtime FX Templates can not the previewed here.
