AUDICOM - Cyberplay Transport ### Intro Countdown timer that indicates the duration of a song's introduction, which is the time before the vocalist begins singing. * Helps the announcer know how long they can talk over the song intro. * The **Intro** time is defined in the **InfoMusic Production** window and can be modified from **InfoMusic Air**. * If titles have presentation files (**Partner**), the Intro time is crucial for adjusting these presentations. ### Crossfades To the right of the **Intro** indicator, a circle progressively fills each time AUDICOM performs a crossfade between two audio files. ### Block Shows the remaining time until the end of a block in minutes and seconds. * A line above the numbers graphically indicates elapsed time. * In live programs (manual mode), AUDICOM remains stopped during the block. * The counter shows time remaining until the next commercial break as a warning. * The operator must press **Play** to air the commercial break. ### Error Indicates in minutes and seconds how far ahead or behind the programming is compared to the original schedule. * In automatic mode, AUDICOM corrects the error when possible using commercial block tolerances. * In manual mode, timing errors can occur due to different program or news durations. Example: * An error of **-05:00** indicates the next block will start 5 minutes earlier than scheduled. * This information allows the operator to make corrections by adding or removing music, promos or spots. ### Expanded Mode Allows widening the CyberPlay window to show more display information. * **LOG**: Commercial break file loaded for the current day. * Double-click the field to open a window to load any `.log` file for the day. * **PGM**: Program file loaded for the current day. * Double-click the field to open a window to load any `.pgm` file for the day. ### Comments Window Shows additional data about the currently playing title: * Artist and author. * Notes or comments. All data comes from the database. * When 15 seconds remain in the current title, information for the next track appears. * Also indicates if the title has associated files, like presentations. ### Pop-up Messages If a user attempts a restricted operation, a pop-up message appears informing about the restriction. * These messages disappear automatically after a few seconds. * They can also be closed by clicking or pressing **ESC**. Example: attempted playback from **File Manager** by an unauthorized user. *** ## Playback Controls Below are the controls and operations for the CyberPlay window (On-Air Screen).\ Keyboard shortcuts are shown in brackets. ### Play `[spacebar / Home]` * Starts playback from the title marked as "next" (green cursor). * If Play is pressed during playback, it skips to the next title. * The skip is always a hard cut. * To transition to the next track with a fade, use **Fade → Play**. **Autorun Mode** * In case of restart after power failure, if **Autorun** is enabled: * AUDICOM starts as **auto** user. * If 1 minute passes without intervention, playback starts from the title closest to current time. * Configured in **Configuration Panel > Preferences**. For AUDICOM to run at computer startup, create a shortcut to `aire.exe` in Windows **Startup** menu. Some stations create a "virtual autorun" by scheduling a **Satfill** block overnight.\ This procedure is explained in *Overnight Transmission Break*. *** ### Pause / Stop `[End]` * When pressed during playback: * **Pause**: stops the title, can resume with Play. * **Stop**: completely stops playback. *** ### Fade & Stop `[Ctrl + End]` Reduces level by 20 dB per second until playback stops. *** ### Fade & Play `[Ctrl + Home]` * Current title ends with progressive fade. * Next title begins playing. * If titles have fade-in and fade-out, **crossfade** is applied. *** ### Stop Point `[Page Up]` Inserts a pause in the CyberPlay list: * When current title ends, playback stops. * Next title becomes "next" (green cursor). * Representation: black bar with **PAUSE** label. Operations: * Insert pause on selected title (yellow cursor). * If no selection, inserts below red cursor (playing title). * Remove pause: select it and press *Pause* button, or drag it to the left. * Can also be done from context menu (right click). *** ## Title Window Actions ### Select a Title `[↑ / ↓ Arrows]` * Click on a title marks it with yellow cursor (selection). * With arrows, selection cursor moves through the list. ### Preview (Cue) `[Delete]` * Double click on title → playback through **Cue** output. * Second double click → plays last 5 seconds (**CUE END**). * Output configuration in **Configuration Panel**. * Control from **InfoMusic Air**, with level meters and position bar. * Stop Cue playback: **Stop-cue** in InfoMusic or **ESC** key. **Console Cue** * Activate **CUE** by double clicking counter's left label. * Audio plays from Live Assist but: * Not reported via RDS/iRDS. * Not logged in `.air` files. This mode is not recommended. Can lead to errors when working without dedicated monitoring channel. ### Remove a Title `[Backspace]` * Select title and drag it to left side of CyberPlay or toward counters. * Alternatively: right click → **Remove**. ### Insert a Title `[Insert]` * Can insert titles from other modules (InfoMusic, MediaManager, Live Assist). * Drag it to CyberPlay window. * Blue line appears indicating insertion position. * Can also use insert button (blue arrow) or **Enter** key. ### Change Title Position * Select title and drag up/down. * Blue line appears indicating new position. Many operations may be restricted by user profile.\ If you attempt a prohibited action, a pop-up message will indicate the restriction.\ For questions, consult the network administrator or technical manager.
