  • 1.  Question about triggering video with a custom control

    Posted 06-13-2015 21:13
    Hello, I had a question is there a way to create a custom control that would trigger playing the video before it was on air, a pre-roll in a way. Sometimes our editors leave the first frame of the video in black and I wanted a way to be able to play it out before taking it on air. Also for cold opens it would be nice to manually trigger when to roll the video. Not sure if this is possible but that I would ask. Thank you!!!

    We are using Bit Central not sure if that matters.

    This should have been in the Switcher Forum not he Server Forum. Are you using OVD or is this manual switcher operation?

    If OverDrive the only issue is that you will have to pay attention to the channel of the server. You will need to make a "Play" custom control for each of the channels and make sure you trigger the correct one.
