Version 4.0 Changes - just:live & just:play

• Simple Graphics Function: Version 4.0 introduces a new way to use on-air graphics. This new feature is aimed at customers that do not necessarily require animated graphics for their channels but want to air a simple station bug or independently need to define two still images where one will be played by default for every element in the video track (movie, live event, and so on) and the other one whenever a live event on air.

...

• The library views in just:play or just:live’s scheduling tab now have an additional “Length (In-Out)” column to show the length of a video between the defined in- and out-points. In case this is different to the video’s original length, the length is marked in yellow.

• The As-Run-Log now correctly logs Gap and Placeholder items as “Aired Gap” and “Aired Placeholder” respectively instead of just “Aired”.

• When creating a SCTE-104 VANC event, there are now three commands available: “Splice Request” (this was previously available), “Time Signal Request” and “Insert Segmentation Descriptor Request”. In addition, multiple SCTE-104 commands may be combined in a single preset, and these will be grouped together into a single VANC packet.

• It is now possible to trigger actions in Just Control via GPI (Service USB device). Please contact ToolsOnAir support directly if you want to use this feature.

• Added a new “Heartbeat timeout” property to the engine configuration panel. This allows you to specify a longer timeout that is used to detect that Just Out has stopped sending heartbeats and should be disconnected. This may be relevant when using failover control when network issues may sometimes cause heartbeats to drop out for a few seconds.

• Stopping a channel in Just Control Configurations now only stops the main engine and not the redundant engine. This allows customers with a redundant setup to maintain a channel without interrupting the On Air signal.

Version 4.0 Changes - just:play only

• New “Gap After” status in a playlist where a gap exists before the next playlist. This is shown at the bottom of the playlist.
