Live T itles
Many of the applications listed at the start of this chapter, such as video
billboards,nightclub and restaurantuses, andin-store displays,have one thing
in common: Titles play live, rather than being recorded.
• Live presentations often rely on automatic play in which each page is as-
signed a duration or uses scroll or crawl (Chapter 17).
• Continuous play (Chapter 20) makes it easy to have the program repeat
over and over again.
• Projects make it possible to store multiple “programs.” For instance, a res-
taurant might have one set of titles play during lunch and switch to a dif-
ferent project later in the day.
• Preview (Chapter 22) is designed for live use. Connect a small monitor to
the preview jack and the Editing Screen and Page Index will only appear
on that monitor. Anytime you edit titles, the regular output will carry what-
ever video is plugged into the IN jack (without titles). The audience will
see the input video rather than watching you type! When you press PLAY,
the titles again appear on both monitors.
• The internal timed trigger (Chapter 18) makes it possible to have a project
(live titles) play at a specified date and time.
