  • 1.  Animation will not autoplay

    Posted 05-08-2020 17:11

    Hi all,

    I have a small .tga animation with Alpha channel that I have set up to cue and play through M1.
    I've set all of the parameters, e.g. loop = true, autoplay = true, x and y position, play speed etc.  However, when the media source goes on air, the animation does not auto play!

    I've tried power cycling the switcher and all four media stores but no dice.  I can see that the system knows the sources are on air because the M1/M2/M3/M4 box goes red on Dashboard when it is taken to air.

    I feel like I may be forgetting something really simple!!

    It's a Carbonite Ultra on Software 2.0.0.2122

    Thanks in advance.

    Are you setting these values on the Media Manager in the "database" entry or the Channel entry?

    When you first click on the element in the Browser the values on the Left are editing the Database attributes of the animation.  However if you load it then click on the channel and then edit the Attribute values of the "Channel" and this is an "instance" of it.  Which means every time you load that item to channel it will reset the values to the Database values.

    Just make sure you in the ITEM DETAILS like you see DATABASE and not M1
