Using GPI/Router Control Events

The Event Library

Click on the Event tab of the Library. Your system administrator should already have prepared events for you. If this is not the case (i.e. the Event list is empty), please contact your system administrator or refer to the chapter above.

Playing an Event item

  1. Drop one or multiple Events into the Workbench (or a Folder inside of the Workbench).

  2. Select the Event in the Workbench and load it into the Timeline.

  3. Press the Play button in the Workbench or the Timeline to execute the event immediately.

  • Depending on the functionality defined for the selected Event item, playing and Event item can execute one or several events at the same time. Please contact your system administrator for more info.

  • Please refer to chapter 6.15 Start/End Actions (Secondary Events) to learn how Events can be added as Secondary Events to a Video element.
