Notice that a transition is performed (returning DDR 1 from Preview to Program ) and, more
importantly, the next item in the playlist begins to play automatically -- right on time. When it
ends, another automatic transition occurs, restoring
Camera 1 to Program output.
Let’s try Autoplay without Single mode:
21. Click Stop (if necessary).
22. Uncheck Single , leaving Autoplay engaged.
23. With DDR 1 on Program, an d Camera 1 on Preview , highlight a fairly long clip (say, a
minute or more).
24. Click Play.
25. After a few seconds, perform a Take and watch what happens:
a. Naturally, DDR 1 and Camera 1 are swapped on the Switcher .
b. DDR playback is stopped at the current frame of the current clip.
26. Perform another Take
a. As expected, DDR 1 is restored to Program output.
b. Playback re-commences at the next frame of the current clip; The DDR did not
automatically jump ahead to the next clip this time.
You may find Single mode your usual choice, but it can be useful to turn it off (as just described)
at other times. Perhaps a live speaker is presenting a long clip, but wants to be free to interrupt
it with live commentary at any time. Turning
Single off (with Autoplay on) works perfectly in this
scenario. The TriCaster operator can click Take or Transition freely, confident that DDR playback
will resume at precisely the right frame when he does so again.
PRESETS
Let’s consider one more powerful feature common to TriCaster’s media players – the Presets Bin .
These bins run vertically down the outer edges of all Media Player (and Audio Mixer ) modules,
providing instant access to custom playlists and configurations.
