Page Content from External Update Services

graphics/diagrams_updateservice-external.png

Page content filling can be done by pointing your template (without a script) to an external update service (e.g. third party), that can return updated data using the Vizrt Data Format (VDF).

In addition to the service mechanism you can also select which actions on the Media Sequencer that should be triggered during an update (read, take etc.) and set the timeout for each action.

Note: Using an update service currently does not allow updates at regular intervals.

For interested developers and 3. party integrators Vizrt have developed a small stub-implementation for an external update service called ExternalUpdateServiceSample. This project is available as source code without cost upon request and can be used as a starting point for developing external update services.
