Myriad Schedule Pro - PlayIt Live support

Modified on Mon, 1 Sep at 11:59 AM


Myriad Schedule Pro has built in support for many Playout/Automation systems, and most other systems will also be able to import Logs exported by using the various "Generic" export formats.

Some Playout Systems require additional configuration or there as special considerations required when working with these systems.

PlayIt Live Media/Audio

For each Media Item in your Myriad Schedule database you should enter the PlayIt Live numeric ID into the External Reference field in the Media Editor.

Adding an Export to PlayIt Live

To add an export to PlayIt Live, in Myriad Schedule Pro, click on the Stations menu, then Station Settings, then select the Log Import/Export tab. In the "Log Export" section at the bottom, click the 'Add' button on the right hand side and select 'PlayIt Live Log file'.

On the window that opens, enter a suitable Description and enter/select the Logs Directory that you want the files to be exported to:

Break Notes:

You can use either Script items direct in the Clock OR Myriad Media Items set as "Commands" to send Break notes to the PlayIt Live log file - for example a script of Aux Input: Duration=2m; Title="Sky News"; DeviceName="Microphone (USB Audio Codec) to tell PlayIt Live to turn on an external audio input. Please see the PlayIt Live documentation for more information about supported Break Note codes.
