Vertigo XG & iTX Integration

User Manual

Once the XG Keyer tracks are displayed on the timeline, you drag & drop a page/scene from
the Vertigo XG palette’s Selection pane onto the primary video track on the timeline. The
page/scene is added to the appropriate XG keyer track as determined by the page/scene’s
keyer setting.

Editing the properties or content of a scheduled XG Event

When a page or scene is added to the iTX channel’s Schedule Grid as an XG event, some of
the event’s properties, like Duration and Keyer, are initially set using the page/scene’s
default values.

You can edit the XG event’s properties by selecting the XG event’s row in the schedule and
then selecting the Event Editor tab. The event’s properties can be edited directly in the
Event Editor and the changes applied by clicking the Store Changes button.

Clicking the Edit Page button opens the page/scene in the VertigoXG Viewer’s Edit view.
You can make content changes to the page that is currently assigned to the XG event. Once
you have clicked the VertigoXG Viewer’s Save Page button, changes to the page/scene are
applied to the page/scene asset on the Xmedia Server, as well as to all XG events that are
associated with that page/scene, even in other channel’s schedules.

.

Note:

When an older schedule is loaded into the iTX Desktop, it may contain

XG events that were authored using an older version of the VertigoXG plugin.
If the

Edit Page

button is clicked for an older XG event, it will open the

Edit

page

fields dialog, which only allows editing of text substitutions in a grid.
