Working with iTX services on an Output Server machine

The iTX Player window

The iTX Player displays its own window, which is different from the standard user interface:

Under the General tab, this window displays details of the media file that the iTX Player is

currently playing.

It also displays details of: the video format of any live signal (Input Source) being fed into Input

1 of the SDI video card; the SDI reference input (SDI Reference).

If the format of the Input Source signal changes (e.g. from HD 1080i to HD 720p), TXPlay re-

configures the channel output to the new format. This causes first the Output Server and then

the iTX Player to restart.

You may use this effect to automatically change the output format of a channel at planned

times of the day. You should be careful, though, not to inadvertently change the channel

configuration by changing the format of the Input Source signal.

The information under the Log tab is not used when the Output Server is running normally.
