Resuming normal playout after a schedule interruption
There may be times in the course of a live schedule when iTX does not play out a media item in
a schedule event. One reason may be simply that there is no schedule event due to take place;
another reason, that the media item in a schedule event, which is due to take place, is
unavailable.
At such times, iTX can maintain an audio-visual output from the channel in a way that is outside
of the control of a schedule. It does this by playing out a standby video clip or displaying a
standby slide (standby items are specified in the channel configuration).
When this happens, you can use Take Next to resume playout of the schedule from the next
event.
Control the playout of the next event
1. Click Hold Next, Cue Next, Take Next or Skip Next.
iTX performs the specified action for the next event.
Note:
• Skipping an event causes it not to take place, but the event stays in the Schedule Grid.
Roll under the current on-air event
1. Click Roll Under.
The Roll Under button flashes red while the roll under is active.
The current on-air event remains on air. Following events continue to take place in the
Schedule Grid and Timeline Display but do not go to air.
