Configuring channel plug-ins

To create the live-events list, you click the Add button to open the PinPoint dialog in

the live-event searching mode. You use this to find live events and select ones to work

with. When you close the dialog, the selected live events appear in the live-events list.

You can remove any selected live event from the live-events list by clicking Remove.

After selecting a live event in the live-events list, you can assign GPI triggers to it. To do

so, you click Edit GPI to display the Edit GPI dialog. Through this dialog, you select the

matrix name of the GPI device and then a GPI input and/or a GPI output.

Through the Edit GPI dialog, you may set up iTX to introduce a delay between the

operation of the Take button and the start of the sequence event. You specify the

length of the delay in the Take Delay box.

You can view the properties of any selected live event and their GPI after clicking

Properties to display the Properties dialog.

Recording of live events
During the installation of an Output Server module, you may set up the Output Server for the

recording of live events.
Through the Event Editor on the Channel Control layout, an operator can make a request for

iTX to record a selected live event. While playing out the event, iTX records it into a file on the

Media Store; it creates a video clip for the file.

You configure the file content and properties by selecting options in the Record Live Events

Profiles section of the Live Event Configuration panel:

For a video recording, you set the file properties by selecting an encoding profile in the

Video Profile box.

In the Record Mode box, you specify at which stage of the video-mixing process the

recording takes place: Before all, if you want iTX to record just the video feed; Before

Branding, if you want iTX to record the video feed and any VANC data it inserts;

Complete, if you want iTX to record the video feed, VANC data, and any logos it

overlays.
