Live player for videos

This function requires at least a Pro License (supports only one active Live Player) or a Wings Vioso license. See also Licenses and functions.

The live players allow intuitive playback of videos or live video inputs during a show. Moreover, it is also possible to display pictures using the Live Player. In such a case you can enter the values for fade in/out and the display time. There are various playback options for embedding videos available.

This is how you use the Live Player:

    1. In the function bar below the main menu click  Live players, following which a live player is opened for every video track.

    2. By way of preparation you could drag a video or a live video input and drop it into the Live player field. But you could also do so during playback. The video does not necessarily need to be located in the Media Pool; you can also drag it from the Windows Explorer and drop it into the live player.

    Important note: Video sound needs to be extracted before your can play it back. In the Media Pool right-click the video and select Extract audio file again.

    Note for Master/Client mode: For playback on client PCs the videos must be available in the corresponding client  sync folders. It might be useful to add the videos to the Media Pool so that Wings Vioso RX is familiar with the file properties. A new vide file that has not yet been stored on the client PCs can only be played on the master PC since there is no file transfer to the clients during the presentation.

    1. During playback the video can be controlled via the Live player buttons Play, Pause and Stop. Once started, the live video is displayed in the screen above the other videos that may also be accommodated on the track.

    2. In order to configure the numerous options for playback, highlight the track head and click on tab Player in the Properties Table. The following options are available:
