Tally Settings

Introduction

The Tally settings allow specifying the settings related to the tally feature. This feature
allows the user to automatically create a clip for each change of camera performed with
the Director’s Cut and to add these clips to a playlist. The clips are created automatically
by the server as it receives GPIs IN signals from a switcher when the director changes
the camera angle.

These fields are available in the following interfaces:

in the Multicam Configuration window, Monitoring tab.

in the Technical menu of the Remote Control Panel (T6.7).

The following screenshot presents the settings page of the Monitoring tab in the server-
based application and highlights the Tally settings area.

The Tally Function

To use the tally function:

1. Activate it using the Tally parameter.
2. Go to the GPIs IN settings area and select the GPI IN used for the tally control.
3. Set the Channel/Device on the REC on which the Director’s Cut is performed.
4. Set the function as Mark Tly .

The tally function is now active: When the server receives a ‘Mark tally’ GPI IN, an IN
point is marked on the corresponding record train (for ex. cam a). When a second ‘Mark
Tally’ GPI IN is received on a different record train (for ex. cam b), the server marks an
OUT point on the first record train (cam a) and an IN point on the second record train (cam
b). All the clips created this way are added to the defined playlist.
