Glossary

This glossary includes terms that are particular to the TelVue® products. Definitions of common server and broadcast terms are available in many online glossaries.

  1. Calendar icon – an icon that, when clicked, opens a calendar so you can select a date to view or insert in a form field.If needed, scroll through the months by clicking on the left-arrows (<<) and right-arrows (>>).
  2. x Cross – an action that allows an operator to follow a particular event with an event of another type.  A typical cross is from a switch event to a playout event.
  3. Delete – to remove content from the library list and the server database.Use this option to remove outdated content from the server. Once content has been deleted, it can only be retrieved by finding a copy elsewhere and reloading it onto the server database.
  4. Delete Icon – a trash-can icon that, when clicked, triggers the deletion procedure for the device, configuration, etc.
  5. Edit Icon – a pencil-and-paper icon that, when clicked, opens an editing window for the device, configuration, etc.
  6. Export Icon – an icon that, when clicked, initiates a copying or an export function.
  7. Event – a function performed by the HyperCaster. Typical events are overlays, playouts, switch device events, and live MPEG stream events.
  8. Home Path– The switch input/output configuration as set in Config  Switch Configuration.
  9. Home Port – the input for each switch output as set in Config  Switch Configuration.
  10. Import Icon – an icon that, when clicked, initiates an import function.
  11. Manual Switch – the use of the switch faceplate, rather than an event or the dashboard, to change the switch path.
  12. Native – TelVue’s import/export format that covers all event types on single-channel and multi-channel systems and can be used for internal manipulations. Native can carry metadata associated with the content, and you can edit the CSV file to change the metadata before importing.  Native format is recommended for batch copying, batch exports, and backups.
  13. IP Capture Feature – an optional feature that enables capture of incoming IP feeds.
  14. Overlay – a text crawl, station logo, or other graphics that are displayed on the screen along with the active playout. 
  15. Playlist – a list of content that can be scheduled as continuity to play in a looping sequence rather than playing just a single content file as continuity.  Playlists are scheduled only as continuity, not as ordinary playout events.
  16. Playout – a file that can play on the server.
  17. Podcast – a digital audio file, or a series of such files, that is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers.
  18. + Plus – an action that allows the operator to schedule an event to follow an event as soon as it ends.
  19. Purge –to remove content from the library list, but preserve it on the HyperCaster’s database. This is less permanent than deleting content. To put purged content back on the list, import it again.
  20. Switch Path–The route of programming as it comes from an input feed, passes through the switch, and goes to an output channel.
  21. Test Icon (Accept Icon) – a green-checkmark icon that, when clicked, tests the connection to a device.
  22. TodayIcon – a calendar icon that, when clicked, inserts today’s date into a form field.
  23. Tomorrow Icon – a calendar icon that, when clicked, inserts tomorrow’s date into a form field.
  24. User Interface (UI) – the Web Application used for configuration and content management.  The terms User Interface and Web Application are used interchangeably.
  25. Vodcast – a digital video file, or a series of such files, that is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers.
  26. Web Application – TelVue’s web-based software for digital broadcast automation, content, and video server management. It is embedded in the HyperCaster.  Also called the User Interface, or UI.
