Working with VANC data
About the VANC Data palette
iTX can insert different types of VANC data into its output video signal. The possible data types
include SCTE 104 messages, which can be used by external equipment to trigger the insertion
of advertisements in commercial breaks; they can also be used to start the playout of
sequences.
The VANC Data palette enables you to add SCTE 104 message events to a schedule. After
specifying message properties, you use the VANC-message insertion bar to add a message
event to a schedule.
Although the palette displays options for other types of VANC data (e.g. AFD codes), you do not
use it for these – there are other ways of setting up iTX to include the relevant data. For
example, you may specify AFD data as a video-clip property on the Asset layout.
