Creating and using rundowns and segments
An overview of the Rundown Editor
The Rundown Editor lists the content and playback order for a program. A rundown is
populated and organized using rundown segments that are built and edited in the Segment
Editor or the Segment window. Figure
7-1 demonstrates that the Segment Editor appears
to the right of the Rundown Editor and is used mainly to view and edit the segments
belonging to the rundown.
Figure 7-1. Rundown Editor components
Figure 7-1 and the following table identifies and describes the components of the Rundown Editor:
Rundown name New rundowns are given a temporary default name of Rundown#, which
appears in the first row of the Rundown list. Once you save the rundown,
the default name is replaced with its new name. Rundowns are saved on
the Xmedia Server as assets and are available to Xbuilder through the
Asset Browser’s Rundowns root category.
Rundown segments Each row in the Rundown Editor represents an individual rundown
segment. Rundown segments are built and viewed in the Segment
Editor/Window and can consist of a single page or a series of pages.
When you select a segment in the Rundown Editor, the row’s background
changes color. When the segment is open the Segment Editor, the
segment’s name is highlighted in the Rundown Editor. These color settings
can be changed using Xbuilder’s segment color settings.
