1.7.9 APPLYING A MACRO COMMAND TO TRIGGER PLAYOUT
EFFECTS
INTRODUCTION
Some playout effects can be triggered by applying a macro command. A macro
command is a kind of shortcut which can be used only for tags and transition
effects and allows the users to quickly manage these functions:
• Adding a tag
o GPI OUT
o Mute On
o Mute Off
o Hide On
o Hide Off
o Audio Swap
See also section 1.7.8 ‘Using Action Tags into a Playlist to Trigger Transport
F
unctions or Playout Effects’ on page86.
• Defining audio and/or video transition effect
See also section 1.7.2 ‘Adding Audio and/or Video Transition Effects’ on page
71.
• Defining still/start mode
See also section 1.7.4 ‘Stopping and/or Starting Automatically the Playout of a
Pl
aylist’ on page 77.
• Resetting transition to default
See also section 1.7.5 ‘Resetting Playout Parameters to Default’ on page 82.
Ma
cro commands are ‘user-specific’, i.e. you may define your own set of macro
commands.
Up to ten macro commands can be configured, from number 0 to 9. This is done
through Tools > Settings > Playlist > Playlist / Macro commands. Refer to
section 1.9.5 ‘Playlist Macro Commands Settings’ on page 127 for more
inf
ormation on how to configure or modify the playlist macro commands.
A macro command can only be applied
• to a selected element in a playlist panel or
• to a playlist element loaded on a control panel
Note
In case a macro command configuration is changed, tags and transition
effects which have previously been applied through a macro command
will not be changed.
