Broadcast Pix has a concept of shows, which contain custom settings and specific
content for each of your own productions. To run the switcher a show file needs to be
running from the Broadcast Pix Switcher application. To create or modify a show see
section 3 of this manual, which talks about PixMaster.
A show can be set to auto-load when Switcher application is started and the Switcher
application can be set to auto-start when the workstation is turned on. When the system
comes from the factory the application loads with an empty Multi-View. To run the
Broadcast Pix system and to use the control panel a show must be loaded. A show is
running when the Multi-View is filled with content/video.

Broadcast Pix Switcher
application on the desktop, and it will open and
display an empty Multi-View.

workstation is turned on, add the Broadcast Pix
Switcher shortcut to the Windows Startup folder.
