After having installed and configured the Vizrt iNEWS Command Plug-in (see Installation and Configuration), the plug-in is ready to be used.

The playlist can either be created in iNEWS by dragging elements from Viz Pilot (see MOS Syntax), or by entering elements directly with the *cg method (see Star CG Syntax). When you start the monitor on the playlist, it becomes visible in Avid MediaCentral® | Command.

When the user locks the channel group, the plug-in, if configured, sends an initialize command to the Media Sequencer.

On cue of an element, the read operation is sent to the Media Sequencer. This causes a preview to be made of that element on the preview channel that has been configured (if any).

On play of an element, the take operation is sent to the server. This causes the element to be played on the program channel.
