Fine, but ‘what about the aforementioned fun’, you ask? Indeed, let us press on:

9. Turn Single and Autoplay on, and make sure Loop is off for both Media Players.

10. Select Still on the Switcher’s Program row.

11. Select Title on the Switcher’s Preview row.

12. Click the first entry in both playlists (to set the current position).

13. Press Play button for Still, lean back in your chair and watch the ‘hands-free’ slideshow.

Let’s consider what is happening:

When playback of the first Still playlist entry reaches its end:

o The Autoplay setting invokes an automatic BKGD layer transition to Title
o And stops Still playback
o Then, unseen on Program output, cues up its next playlist item.

Simultaneously, the Title player’s Autoplay setting initiates playback of its first playlist
entry.

When playback of that item is reached:

o The Autoplay function performs another transition, returning Still to the

Program row

o And stops Title playback
o Next, the Autoplay setting in Still automatically starts playing its next playlist

item.

o Then, unseen on Program output, the Title player cues up its next playlist entry.

The cycle repeats until all items play through or is interrupted by user actions.

TriCaster™ title pages can actually be added to any of the Media Players (apart from the Sounds
player).
