Optional features
Optional features
As well as the features you use for basic playout, iTX includes a variety of optional features for
other playout operations. Some of these features may already be available on standard layouts;
any that are not may be added to a layout by a Grass Valley engineer. (In some cases, a feature
may require a license before it becomes available.)
In this section, we tell you how to use these optional features:
• The Live CG Inserter. More details , page 334.
• The Gang Hold, Cue and Take Next controls. More details , page 334.
• The Count To Control. More details , page 335.
• The Schedule Preview Control. More details , page 336.
• The Global Editor. More details , page 339.
• The Live Channel Management panel. More details , page 341.
• The Live Video Inserter. More details , page 343.
• The Recue Item control panel. More details , page 345.
Your system administrator may add a channel for checking on missing media to one or more of
your channel views. This channel is available if the Missing Materials Manager (an iTX service) is
included in your iTX system:
• The Missing Material status channel. More details , page 346.
Some layouts can be configured to automatically control the output to a video monitor as you
switch channels or channel views. You can then view:
• The schedule events in a selected channel. More details , page 348.
• The next events to play out in various channels of a selected channel view. More details ,
page 348.
