Starting Just Control for the first time (or when adding a new Channel) you can use the Channel Wizard to create a Channel.

  1. Make sure to start Just Out and Just Connect from the Dock or the Just Playout folder first.

  2. Then start Just Control which will automatically display the Admin User Wizard. We recommend keeping the defined username for now. Press "Login".

  3. The Device Wizard opens and shows the local IP address and the Port which will be used by the Device. In case Just Out and Just Connect are running on a different machine, you can type in the IP address of the other machine here. Otherwise do not change the settings here!

  4. Verify that Just Out and Just Connect are started on the local (or remote machine) and click "Connect". Once Just Out is recognised, the playout Wizard will be opened.

  1. Make sure the option New Channel is selected.

  2. Enter the name of your Channel into the Channel's name field.

  3. Select the Format the Channel will use for broadcast. Make sure that the frame rate of your Videos is the same as the one selected here.

  4. Select the Type of User Interface you would like to use with this Channel.

    • just:play for automated 24/7 Scheduled Playout.

    • just:live for manually operated Live Playout.

  5. Enter the IP address of the machine where the Just Out engine is running which you would like to use with this Channel, in case it is not the local machine. Usually there is no need to change the IP address and the Port.

  6. Define what kind of Video hardware you would like to use for the final output:

    • Virtual: in case there is no Video hardware available for the final output on the machine running Just Out.

    • AJA: in case you have a supported AJA Video device installed on the machine running Just Out.

    • Blackmagic: in case you have a supported Blackmagic Video device installed on the machine running Just Out.

  7. Change the Repository Folders if desired. The default Repositories are:

    • Video files: /Users/yourUserName/Videos

    • Graphic files: /Users/yourUserName/Pictures

    • Audio files: /Users/yourUserName/Music

    • Playlist files: /Users/yourUserName/Documents/Playlists

  8. Keep it “Include Simple FX layer with station and live bugs” activated to load a Tools On Air station bug (and a live bug) by default to your on air signal, where both still images can be changed once the channel has been generated. Deactivate “Include Simple FX layer with station and live bugs” in case you would not like to use the simple FX graphics option for now.

  9. Click the “Configure” button when you are done.
