vsnnews terminal - Overview

vsnnews terminal allows users to switch the news playlist view into Editing, Production and CG views. The Editing view is restricted to news terminal and includes additional information of interest for the reporters such as the specific reporter the news item has been assigned to, the time the news item was last modified, among other useful information.

The Production view is actually the same playlist view as the one shown in the vsnnews playout, vsnairnews, user interface. Finally, the CG view is also restricted to news terminal and shows on the playlist all information relative to the graphic objects that may have been added to news events.

To facilitate the reporters’ editing tasks, the A/V editor can be accessed from the news items edit dialog. Vsnnews terminal does not feature ON AIR or Playout capabilities. Since playout tasks are the responsibility of the master room director only vsnnews playout includes these functionalities.
