Preview.

This is an area used to view the information present in the mirror. To consult, it is necessary to choose the Date and the Program you want to see.

After selecting the program, all time counts will appear in the top menu, according to the mirror mounted in ‘Main’:

  • Start: program start time

  • End: program end time

  • Duration: total duration of the program (based on the start and end time)

  • Breaks: total break time (inserted at the end of the blocks)

  • Production: total time of information inserted in the pages (heads, vts, live, covered notes and footnote)

  • Total: sum of production time + break

  • Overflow / Leftovers: based on duration, shows when there is time to build the newspaper (leftovers) or overflows (red and negative)

  • Remaining Time: How much time is left for the program to air

  • Consider: Approved: considers and shows only the time count of approved pages. All: considers and shows the time count of all pages, in general.

Note: if the mirror is configured for calculation based on the ‘Production’ of the program, the information is presented in another way. In this scenario, the break time is not displayed and the production time can be edited at any time. See the image below:

On the left side of the Preview, all available pages will be listed. The following information also appears:
• Page: indicates which page is the page
• Type: shows the type of the page
• Headline: shows the title of the page
• Head: shows the head time of the page
• Link: shows the live time for the reporter
• VT: shows the VT time of the page
• Total: shows the sum of VT time or covered note or link + heads and foot notes (if any)
• Status: shows the status of the page (in the Air or Displayed - manual mode)
• Approval: shows which pages are approved (the selected checkbox indicates which ones are approved)
• TP: indicates which page is positioned in the TP

Note: some columns may not appear. Check the mirror settings.

The different colors indicate the block change. In the example below, the yellow ones indicate the 1st block, the salmon indicates the 2nd, the green the 3rd and the lilac the 4th.

If the program is radio, some columns will change.

• Page: indicates which page is the page

• Loc: shows the speech time of the page
• Link: shows the live time for the reporter / interviewee

• Approval: shows which pages are approved (the selected checkbox indicates which ones are approved)
• TP: indicates which page is positioned in the TP


In the upper right corner. it is possible to hide columns that are not used by operators, which makes the visualization cleaner and easier to interpret - only what they actually use is available.

 

To view the information contained in the page, just select it and all the information will be listed on the right side: texts, if there is media (tv), if there is GC (tv) and etc.
Note: the viewer is fully resizable and shows the selected and next page, one below the other.
