Event Type
Description
PLAY
This event is used to PLAY a clip or media file. By default, the IN and OUT points of the
PLAY event are the first and last frame of the clip. If you wish to modify the IN and OUT
points of a PLAY event, you must manually edit the script file using a text editor.
PAUSE
This event is used to PAUSE playback of the script. This event may only exist between two
PLAY events. Control track commands, such as a GPI event, immediately before the pause
will be executed before script playback is paused. Script events immediately after the pause
event will happen when playback is resumed.
Pause events will only be executed if playback is moving forward at 1x.
When a PAUSE event is detected during script playback, playback is paused and only video
black is output. To restart playback, the system must receive either a GPI input signal or the
PLAY button must be pressed on the front panel of the server (PLAY – Control menu page).
If the PLAY event following the PAUSE event is of a different video format, the system will
pre-load the video format just prior to the PAUSE event. To avoid video output anomalies
while the system is switching video formats, you may close the projectors douser (if
supported by the projector) using a TPC command right before the PAUSE event.
SCRIPT
This event enables a script file to be started by another script. This is useful for organizing a
program into smaller mini-scripts that can be maintained independently yet still work
together. Each mini-script can be referenced from a “master” script using this event type.
GPI
The GPI (General Purpose Interface) event, describes a signal to be generated on a
particular GPI output. There are four GPI outputs that may be used to communicate to a
