Widgets in PlayoutONE

Widgets can be accessed by right-clicking on the log, choosing Widgets, selecting the widget's name, checking an option that will display a widget, clicking it again to hide the widget, or closing the opened window.

All of the widgets are draggable and resizable, so you can place them in any location you want and scale them to any size.

Current Player Time Remaining

This shows you the time of the current player remaining

On-Air Dashboard

This displays:

• the current track which is playing
• your automation mode
• the time left on the cart
• the chain status of the current playing item
• a play-next button

Voice Tracking

This opens the voice tracking widget. You can use this to insert and record a voice track into the log.

Mix Player

Opens the mix player, which is used via the mix player command, where you can have multiple carts or audio elements playing in sequence.

The mix player doesn't have to be open for a MIX PLAY command to run. However, it allows you to see the progress of what is happening during playback.

You can also fade out what the mix player is playing from here.

Stop mix player

This is to stop the above mix player; pressing this option will stop anything from playing the mix player.

Network player

This allows you to see your network player; this will be used via the network player command, which works like the mix player.

The only difference is that this will play all elements simultaneously rather than queuing them after each other like the mix player.
