Triggering Smart Transfer By Hardware Inputs or IP Signals

Modified on Tue, 24 Sep at 12:56 PM

If you would like to trigger the Smart Transfer feature in Myriad 5 Playout based on an physical hardware input or IP Message sent from an external device, watch the video below to learn more.

 

 

In this video, you will learn how to create a Command Media Item that included the Command Code needed to trigger the Smart Transfer to a specific Myriad workstation Location. If you would like to try this for yourself at your station, you will find the original code block listed below:

 

REM If you want to use this script unattended (i.e. without any user interaction) 
REM then remove all the lines that start with System.ShowMessage or System.ShowMessageYesNo

REM Check to see if we are location 10 - if so then we can't transfer to ourselves:
#IF {System.GetLocationId()=10}
System.ShowMessage("You cannot transfer the Log to yourself")
Commands.Exit()
#END

REM Do we have On Air control? If not then exit
#IF {OnAir.GetControlStatus()!=IsController}
System.ShowMessage("You do not have On Air Control")
Commands.Exit()
#END

REM Do we have On Air control? If not then exit
#IF {Qae.GetMode(-1)=Standby}
System.ShowMessage("Your Log is in Standby mode so cannot be transferred")
Commands.Exit()
#END

REM We have checked that we are trying to transfer to somewhere else,
REM so go ahead and initiate the process
Qae.RequestTransferTo(-1,10)

IMPORTANT: Remember to REM the lines with the System.ShowMessage or System.ShowMessageYesNo lines if you want to run the process automatically (without user having to confirm).

You can also download the Media ID used in this video by clicking on the link to the Transport File at the bottom of this article.
