Appendix: Gangroll

The Cobalt Playout Control (POC) Gangroll functionality is used to start a queued manual Event on

multiple Channels at the same time. For example, this can be useful when starting a commercial break

during a live show that is aired on several Channels simultaneously.

The steps for working with the gang roll functionality are:

Add manual Events to the applicable Playlists.

Select the Channels to include in the gang roll.

Start the gang roll.

21.1 Adding a manual Event to the Playlist

The gang roll functionality will start the first queued manual Event found in the specified Playlists.

Playlists are searched starting from the time gang roll is triggered.

In POC, add manual Events to the applicable Playlists, for instance after a Live Event.

21.2 Selecting the Channels to include in the gang roll

In POC, on the Playlist’s menu bar

,

click the Gangroll button. This will open the Gangroll window.

 In the Gangroll window, click the Configure button to open the Gangroll Configuration window.
