Playing Clips to Air

Playback operators use the Aurora Playout application to control the playback of news
clips to air.

Using a playlist linked to an NCS rundown or the local Aurora Playout playlist,
playback operators cue and play clips as required during a broadcast.

The Clip Browser, Rundowns, and Playlist Overview are all dockable; you can
rearrange windows or close windows you aren’t using (such as unused channels). The
channel windows are not dockable, but each can be opened or closed.

To restore a window you have closed, choose the name of the window from the View
menu. To restore all windows to their default locations, choose

Tools | Reset Windows

.

With MediaFrame integration, you can preview clips prior to air using MediaFrame
clip player and view metadata properties that had been created by right-clicking within
Clip Browser, Playlist Overview, Playout channels and Playlist.
