3.5 Main Event
In this paragraph we will briefly explain the concepts ´main Asset´ and ‘main Event’ that this manual at
some points refers to.
A Playlist lists main Events. Each main Event consists of secondary Events (Templates and Applets).
Example: in a music show Format, Events are built of the following secondary Events:
• Playout the clip.
The clip is the main Asset. The dynamic reference to the music clip file (scene parameter usually
linked to the File property of the Clip Player object) is updated with the clip asset’s filename when
the Events are scheduled. Dynamic content is fetched from Storage for playout.
• Fade in the logo 5 seconds after the start of the main Event.
The logo is a fixed Asset that is included in the Channel Pack
• Fade out the logo 3 seconds before the end of the main Event.
The secondary Events are timed relative to the main Asset’s duration.
