Testing and Troubleshooting the Playout

Changing how event types appear in the timeline

Changing how event types appear in the timeline

When events appear on the timeline, they are divided into rows according to their type. You
can choose which types appear as timeline elements. If the playlist contains types that you
have chosen not to display, they are regrouped into a row labeled Others.

Commit

The event is committed to playout (occurs just before playout begins).

Cued

The event has been cued.

Cueing

The event is being cued.

Done

The event successfully played out for its entire duration. Its on air time may
differ from the scheduled duration if an action such as Take Next or Join in
Progress (see “JIP” in GV STRATUS Playout Operator Guide) was used;
however, it is marked Done since the event played for the entirety of its
reported on air time.

Dropped

The event is set as dropped from the playlist. It no longer appears in the
timeline, but remains visible in the channel grid.

Evergreen

The event was unable to play and is being replaced by Evergreen content.

Failed

The event failed to play.

Inaccessible

The location for the media file is not accessible.

Manual off

The secondary event was manually disabled from the playout. This occurs
when a secondary event is taken off air by clicking a Manual Control on the
Playlist page.

Missing

The media file is missing from the defined location.

Not Ready

The event is not ready for playout.

Off Air

The event is not playing.

On Air

The event is on air.

Partial

The event only played out a portion of its duration. It may not have played
out entirely due to a user requested breakaway, a bad or truncated piece of
media, system misconfiguration or a fault in the playback system.

Ready

The event is ready for playout.

Skipped

The event was skipped in the playout. An event can become skipped when a
dropped event enters the pre-roll window or when a playlist is appended
with events that are in the past. Skipped events do not appear in the
timeline, but remain visible in the channel grid.

Standby

The primary media file was unable to play and has been replaced by the
configured standby media file.

Suppressed

The event is suppressed from playing in the playout.

Un-dropped

The event was dropped, but has been un-dropped from the playlist.
