char* Formats XML structure with Formats and import field values (Italic
values are optional) e.g.
offset=”00:00:30:00”
duration=”00:00:10:00”>
value
The import field is transformed to a Main Event import field
by the name of: “[formatIndex]_[fieldName]”. If [value] of an
format import field is empty, the value ‘empty’ will be used.
char* MainEventName Main Event name.
long long iLockID 0 (is not used).
char* TcIn Specifies timecode in in hh:mm:ss:ff.
char* TcOut Specifies timecode out in hh:mm:ss:ff.
Result
The result of the function is an integer that can have following values:
Value Description
>=0 Success, the main_event is created. The result is the id of the new
main_event.
-1 Failure, the main_event could not be created.
Example
This example creates a main event with an import field (test) and format (PGM).
// Constants
const string8 externalRefSt = “test”;
const string8 playoutIpSt = “192.168.0.1”;
const int playoutPortNm = 5020;
const string8 assetIpSt = “192.168.0.2”;
const int assetPortNm = 5020;
const long long channelIdNm = 1;
// Connect to asset database
int result = cob_init_remote ( assetIpSt.c_str(), assetPortNm );
if (result == 0 ) return;
// Find external reference in asset database

long long assetIdNm;
