Automatic

: Branding elements defined as “automatic” are monitored

automatically in the Content Gateway and anytime the file is changed,
it is automatically ingested, converted to the proper format and
deployed with no manual intervention required.

To prevent on-air discontinuities, content that is loaded according to
assignment is not automatically updated when the hard disk drive is
updated. The Update Mode only applies to the updating of content on the
Maestro Frame Processor hard disk drive. Maestro internal content is
loaded from the Frame Processor hard disk drive when it is assigned.

Note

If content that has been assigned the “automatic” update mode on Maestro,
the content on the hard disk drive will be automatically be updated. However,
to use the updated content, the source must be unassigned and then reas-
signed.
