2.4.13 AUTOMATION
Record, edit, and play back macros, whether a simple operation or
more involved series of events at the touch of a button. Use
powerful integrated automation systems to trigger these,
simplifying complex tasks and ensuring consistent operations.
Hint: See also LiveStory ™ in the Appendix on Premium Access
features.
2.4.14
HOTSPOTS, TRIGGERS AND TRACKERS
Define multiple onscreen Hotspots for different (chromakeyed)
sources, and trigger macros automatically whenever something
opaque enters the hotspot. This live interactivity opens up
countless creative applications.
Trackers provide motion data from selected color regions as they
move about the frame in real-time. Lock other video sources to
Tracker output using Position tools in M/Es banks and DSK s and
they will follow obediently.
Note: TriCaster TC Mini does not support the features detailed in this section.
2.4.15
IMPORT
I MPORT M EDIA
The integrated Import Media feature provides a convenient one-stop approach to gathering productions

• Batch import media files for use in Media Players.
• Imported files are automatically categorized as stills or clips, and can be pre-assigned to the specific
players, making them easy to find and use during live productions.
• When necessary, imported files are transcoded to formats that ensure smooth playback.
