Grass Valley Vertigo XG Integration v.2.6 - Manual (Page 5)

Integration of Vertigo XG and iTX
The branding capabilities of a typical iTX playout channel can be enhanced by integrating
Vertigo graphics events into the iTX playout schedule. Using the VertigoXG plugin, Vertigo
XG events can be added to the iTX Desktop’s schedule as secondary graphics events and
then inserted into the iTX program stream either using:
• the XG Inside as an option that integrates the XG Renderer directly within iTX Output
Servers and iTX Playout Appliances
or,
• an external Grass Valley Vertigo XG device downstream of the iTX Output Server
