Overview of Using NewsQ
With manual playout, you play clips to air with NewsQ in three stages:
1. Create a new playlist using digitized news clips stored in the Bin.
You can also open an existing playlist. Importing clips from another
workstation or media server is another way to put clips in your playlist.
2. Trim any clips in the playlist, if necessary.
Change the starting or ending point of a clip.
3. Cue the clips in the playlist and play them to air during a news broadcast.
Cue clips automatically or manually. Play each clip to air when needed.
Change the starting point of a clip during playback.
If you are using NewsQ with an automation system, you follow these steps:
1. Configure NewsQ to use automation.
See “Using An External Automation System” on page 63 for instructions.
2. Load the playlist into the automation system.
3. Play the clips to air using the external automation system.
This manual takes you through the process of playing clips to air with NewsQ.
