WideOrbit Audio

For each Media Item in your Myriad Schedule database you should enter the Wide Orbit Category and Media Asset ID reference into the External Reference field in the Media Editor. These should be entered as the 3 letter Category Code followed by a hypen then the 2 letter prefix and 4 digit numeric code. Your numeric code MUST be 4 digits, so you may need to add "leading" zeroes - e.g. "12" becomes "0012".

For example:

MUS-DA1234
MUS-VP9876
LIN-DA0012

Commands/Break Notes:

You can use either Script items direct in the Clock OR Myriad Media Items set as "Commands" to send Commands to the WideOrbit log file. Please see the WideOrbit documentation for more information about supported Commands.
