Using Missing Materials Manager
By enabling the channel-selection option, you instruct Missing Materials Manager to search
schedules in just selected playout channels for events with missing media files. If this option is
not selected, Missing Materials Manager searches schedules in all playout channels.
Set up Missing Materials Manager to check schedules in selected playout channels
1. In the Missing Materials Manager window, select the Engineering, Channels tab.
2. Select Enable Channel Selection.
3. Do the following to select channels for monitoring.
• Select channels in the Available Channels list.
• Click to add them to the Checked Channels list.
You may remove a channel from the Checked Channels list by selecting it and
clicking

Missing Materials Manager Reporting
Under the Reporting tab, you can schedule Missing Materials Manager to produce reports of
missing media files at regular intervals.
Missing Materials Manager can present a report in three ways:
• As a single XML document that contains combined details of all missing media files
required for all playout channels.
• As a set of XML documents, with each one containing the details of all missing media
files required for a particular channel.
• As a set of XML documents, with each one containing details of a single missing media
file. Because of the large total number of individual XML documents that may be
created for this type of report, it is best to set a limit to how many are created each
minute.
Instead of waiting for a scheduled report, you may manually request an instant one at any time.
Where a missing media file is required for multiple channels, its details appear only for the
channel in which it is first needed.
