Preface

• In Schedule Mode a Channel records clips based on Calendar Events from the Apple Calendar application of the machine running just:in Engine.
• After configuring a Channel in just:in Engine, a Calendar with that same name will be automatically created in Apple's Calendar app for that Channel.
• You may also use any other Calendar which can be added to the Apple Calendar app, like a Calendar from iCloud or Gmail Accounts or from Mail/Calendar severs.

Selecting a custom Calendar

You may select a custom Calendar in the Channel Settings of the just:in Engine Preferences.

Adding Calendar Events for Schedule Mode

1. Open Apple Calendar.
2. Select the desired Channel in the list of Calendars on the left or the appropriate Calendar for this channel.
   
   
   
3. Add Events to the Calendar.
   
   
   
4. The Events will show up in the Inspector of the just:in User interface. Each Event will result in one Recording.
   

Using Variables in Calendar Events

By default the Calendar Event Name will be used as the Clip's name. You may use Variables like <Channel>, <Date> and <Time>. Refer to the chapter Names for further information about Variables.

Repeating Calendar Events

Repeating a Calendar Event would result in a file which gets overwritten every time the same event is executed again. To avoid this you can add the Variables <Date> and <Time> to the Calendar Event. This appends the date and time (= beginning of the corresponding Calendar Event) to the Clip Name. 

Maximum Record Length

It is not possible to use Calendar Events which exceed a length of 12 hours. just:in will truncate the Recording length automatically, if required.
