Known Limitations

The following are the known limitations of the Vizrt iNEWS Command Plug-in. The limitations are based on functionality most users expect from a Vizrt graphics workflow; hence, the basic playout and control of Vizrt graphics, when compared to Vizrt control applications, is a bit different.

  • When using *cg syntax: No default values are present for *cg elements with no input data.

    Example: External template v1003 has two input text fields where default values have been set in Viz Pilot, then the following syntax gives a data element with empty values:

    *cg v1003
  • Standalone playlists and shotbox: Standalone playlists and shotbox functionality are not supported in this version.

  • Timed graphics being played out relative to a video, does not have support for continue count.

  • No support for video elements.

  • If a playlist created by the plug-in is deleted in Viz Pilot, the Avid Graphic Device Service must be restarted.

  • If the Media Sequencer is restarted, the Avid Graphic Device Service must be restarted.
