With the Channel configured to listen to a given Calendar, the main configuration part is complete. Now, the recording starts and stops automatically as soon as an Event is scheduled, and the start time reaches the current time.
File Naming
File naming in Schedule Mode also utilizes the well-known Naming Presets of just:in mac for macOS2025. Therefore, all available Variables, such as Date, Time, Channel, etc., can be used. However, there is one special case: the “Name” variable. This variable can be used to incorporate the event name into the actual file name of the scheduled event. For instance, if the event name is “Test001”, the file name of the recorded event will be the same if the selected Naming Preset uses the “%Name” variable. Other variables, like the “Date” variable, can be combined as well.
Timecode Source and macOS System Time
Another important consideration is the Timecode Source, as well as the macOS system time of the machine running the Just In Engine application. This is crucial because the Just In Channel Timecode Source and the macOS time should be the same; otherwise, the recordings will not happen at the scheduled time. Therefore, ensure that either the macOS system is synced via a valid NTP server or that the LTC and the macOS time are synchronized to the same source.
