Template Builder User Guide
Version 3.0 | Published October 04, 2023 ©
Introduction
Template Builder lets you make customized templates using scene import or existing templates from Viz Pilot's Template Wizard. This user guide shows you how to customize templates.
Info: A key feature is that you can add custom HTML panels to templates, giving full control over the template through custom scripting and logic.
Workflow
A simplified version of the workflow follows below:
-
Scenes are made in Viz Artist.
-
The scenes are imported into Template Wizard, where templates are made.
-
Templates are edited and new templates can be made in Template Builder.
-
The template is saved in the Viz Pilot system and is available to newsroom and control room systems for playout.
Note: Changes made to a template in Template Builder are not be available when opening the template in Template Wizard.

Antivirus

There are general best-practice solutions, these include setting the antivirus software to not scan the systems during operating hours and that the Vizrt components, as well as drives on which clips and data are stored, are excluded from their scans (as previously stated, these measures cannot be guaranteed).
