AirSpeed Multi Stream Los-Res Proxy Viewer
70
To set the Mark In point for an item that is recording, it needs to be added to a Command playlist (via
ENPS, Newsroom Mgmt., or a Standalone playlist). Once there and available, you can double-click
the item and type the Mark In point.
If you want to open the item in the Media Viewer and use the Jog to set the Mark In point, you have
to configure a Browse channel as part of the Command playlist. It can either be a Browse channel
that is part of the Playback channel group—such as, Channels AB for playback and C for browse—or
with Command v2.6, you can configure a Playback channel group (AB) and a separate Browse-only
group (C). The Browse-only channel group also needs to be added to the playlist.
To play while record on an AirSpeed video server:
1. Configure an AirSpeed video server so that it has a record and playback channel. This means that
the AMS Device Service needs to be part of the Command workgroup, and the playback channel
needs to be in a Command channel group.
2. After the item starts recording, it should appear in Command's inventory within approximately
10 seconds.
3. After the item is available, it can be played at any time. The countdown clock time will be
erratic, because the duration is being updated while the item is playing.
4. When the recording is stopped, the total time code gets updated one last time, Command then
stops at the recording's stopping point, and then follows the Command hold last frame setting.
To play while record with Newsroom Mgmt.:
1. Add the item’s ID to the Video ID column of the playlist and load the show.
2. Start recording the item on the video server, using the Video ID that you entered in the playlist.
3. After the item becomes available, you can play it, and optionally double-click the item to enter
the Mark In point.
To play while record with ENPS:
1. Do an object autocreate to create a Video ID.
2. Start recording, using the autocreated Video ID.
3. After the item becomes available, you can play it, and optionally double-click the item to enter
the Mark In point.
To play while record with a standalone playlist:
1. Add the item to a standalone playlist (Alt+Ins).
2. Start recording, using the Video ID that you used in the standalone playlist.
3. After the item becomes available, you can play it, and optionally double-click the item to enter
the Mark In point.
AirSpeed Multi Stream Los-Res Proxy Viewer
Both the AirSpeed 5000 and AirSpeed Multi Stream video servers support a low-res proxy viewer,
which lets users view video (with audio) at their Command Workstations rather than use an output
channel to browse clips. However, there are certain limitations with each type of server.
