Create a New Ticker Asset
Content of the same material type as the content displayed in the Material
Display Area may be added to the DCM. Available material types are
video, still image, ticker, QuickTime, Flash, HTML, audio, URI, command
and volume.
Note Ticker, URI, command and volume files are created in the DCM rather than
adding existing files as with the other material types.
After switching the Material Display Area (see Change Material Type Display
on page 111 for more information) to the Ticker material type, follow these
steps to create a new ticker asset in the DCM:
1. Do one of the following:
Click the New button on the Tool bar.
Select File>New from the Menu bar.
Press the [
CTRL]+[N] keys on the keyboard.
A new Ticker asset is added to the DCM and is displayed in the Material
Display Area as shown in Figure 143.
