Rundown Viewer NEW

With this release, we introduce a new application designed to give all users a read-only peek at the running status of the show that is currently on-air, from the convenience of your browser.

In response to feedback about the importance of displaying the full template variant, seeing more upcoming stories and of how the Mosart GUI can scale badly on different screens, Rundown Viewer introduces story scaling. This enables the user to choose the horizontal timescale, without affecting the vertical scale and text sizes:

Since this is a web application, you can use it anywhere in your facility that your network configuration allows. HTTPS is supported.

No client installation needed - just open your browser and go to the URL that you've saved as a bookmark. As the Rundown Viewer application is read-only, it is safe for anyone to open without disturbing the show.

This app will continue to change and evolve. We have big plans, including the possibility of one day replacing the current Mosart GUI.

Current Limitations

• Missing template indicator (red variant box) is not displayed.

• Back-time calculation (the timer to the left in the Story) not supported.

• The Autotake indication on items is not displayed.

• Cue failure indications (striped clips) are not displayed.

More than ever, your feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated!

NRCS Plugin

New features and improvements:

• Keyboard Navigation - it is now possible to navigate the UI of the plugin using your keyboard.

  Note:
  By adding a newsroom tag to the Animate checkbox from the Engine Switcher Plugin properties window, a journalist can specify a preset transition (CUT/TAKE) from the NRCS.
