Tour of the Assignment List Plug-In
You use your NCS to create rundowns for news shows and add scripts for each
story. The NewsQ Pro Assignment List Plug-in integrates with both ENPS and
iNews and allows you to create placeholders for clips, assign those
placeholders to newsroom editors, and link the resulting clips back to your NCS
rundown.
The Assignment List Plug-in displays the following information for each clip:
Column Description
S (Status) The clip status: displays OK if a clip has been completed, sent to the Profile Video Server,
and is ready for playback. Status is blank if a clip is incomplete and not ready for playback.
Clip Name The name of the placeholder clip.
Type The type of clip an editor needs to create: either Voice Over (VO) or Sound on Tape (SOT).
Duration The clip length.
Category The category assigned to the clip; you can assign categories based on the editor to receive the
assignment, for instance.
Description Brief description of the clip an editor needs to create.
Clip ID The clip ID, which is automatically defined when the placeholder is created.
Date The date the placeholder was created.
