Upgrading Myriad v3 to Myriad Playout v5 (via v4)

Introduction

In the attached document we will guide you through the various steps needed to move from a legacy Myriad v3 system to a new Myriad Playout v5 system coupled with AutoTrack SE.

There are many phases to this process and it may appear a big task but we have broken it down into several steps and including a lot of screen shots to make following the process easier.

The steps are:

• Install and configure Microsoft SQL Express 
• Install and configure Myriad 4 Playout
• Prepare the audio and data for v5
• Install and configure Myriad 5 Playout
• Run the upgrade utility to upgrade your data
• Install AutoTrack SE
• Use AutoTrack SE to import your AutoTrack v3 data.
• Synchronise your Song / Link Categories between AutoTrack SE and Myriad 5 Playout

This document assumes a good working knowledge of Myriad and AutoTrack as well as basic
Windows operations.

You should also ensure you have completed the following before attempting the upgrade process:

• Backed Up All Data & Audio
• Synchronised Song / Link Categories between AutoTrack 3 and Myriad 3 Playout
