Shot Editor Playback

Wirecast User Guide | 104730
Select what to do when the media is finished (loop, hold, or remove) from the drop-
down menu. Check the Begin Playing checkbox to cause the media to automatically
start playing when it becomes live. Check the Remember Position checkbox to cause
the media to remember its position when it is not live.
The vertical slider set the audio level and the two meters display it in stereo (left and
right). Click the Master Audio Mute icon to mute the audio of your broadcast. Click it
again to un-mute it. Click the Headphones icon to mute the local audio feed. Click it
again to un-mute it.
The Playback Panel only allows modification of parameters on media for which the
options are possible. For example, if your media has no audio, then the audio controls
are not active. Or, if your media is a still image, you are not able to set an In point or Out
point nor play the image.
The Playback Panel setup information is saved separately for each shot, so if a media is
used in two different shots, the media settings are different in each shot.
Live Playback
Live Playback is a part of the Playback settings. By default, changes in the Playback
Panel are like any other changes in the Shot Editor, they do not take effect until you
click the Go button. However, there are times when you may want to scrub (slowly
scroll and view) the video and see the scrubbing in the Live broadcast.
Check the Live Playback checkbox to cause changes you make in the Playback Panel to
become live. This gives you immediate control over the movie or audio in the Live
broadcast.
Note: If you want to pause all movies in your broadcast, you can select Pause All
Movies from the Media menu. This is particularly useful if you only have just one movie
and you want to quickly pause it.
Scrubbing
The Scrubbing slider enables you scrub (scan) back and forth through your media. The
triangle icon in the scrubbing slider is called the playhead.
Click and drag this triangle (playhead) left and right to view any location in your media.
The primary use of scrubbing is to set the In Point and Out Point in your media. If Live
Playback is checked, and the shot you are editing is live, then the scrubbing is also seen
in your Live broadcast.
