Viz Mosart Web Applications

Mosart Web Applications are value-adding utilities and plugins that simplify working with Viz Mosart. They are not part of a standard Viz Mosart delivery.

Prerequisites

A running Viz Mosart system. Individual web apps depend on the Viz Mosart server supporting them, so for the Viz Mosart version required by your Mosart Web Apps release, see the Mosart Web Apps Release Notes at the Vizrt Documentation Center.
To use Showmaker, you must have Viz Mosart 5.14.3 or later.

Getting Started

Collect the latest software bundle from Vizrt's customer download site at https://download.vizrt.com/
by navigating to /products/VizMosart/Latest Version/WebApplications/.

Note: If upgrading, make sure an existing instance of the Mosart Web Applications Configuration Tool is not open.

Run the downloaded file MosartWebApplications.Bundle-n.n.n.n.exe.
The Web Applications that will be installed are listed.

Info: The Installer places these services and applications on the target machine:

Mosart Web Applications: A Windows service that serves the Mosart Web Applications.
Mosart Web Proxy: Caddy2 bundled within the Mosart Web Apps installer, running as a Windows service.
Mosart Web Applications Configuration Tool: A desktop web application for configuring and launching the web applications.
The set of Mosart Web Applications listed on the Installer.

Click Install.
Any previously installed version of the Mosart Web Applications is automatically upgraded. All configurations and preferences are retained and you complete the installation by clicking Finish.
After successful installation, the Mosart Web Applications Configuration Tool displays, together with a desktop shortcut for quick access.
From the navigation sidebar on the left, select one of the following:

Sidebar entry	What it is for
Home	The landing page, which is also the app launcher: every installed web app is opened from here, per studio where studios are configured.
App Configuration	Per-app settings: NRCS Plugin, Showmaker, Template Editor and Named Overlays Editor.
Server Configuration	The Mosart server addresses, proxy, HTTPS, authentication and the shared integrations.
Studios	Definitions of the studios on a multi-studio site.
Help & Resources	The User Guide, Release Notes, API Docs, the Stream Deck plugin and the Mosart Server settings editor.
Quick setup	Re-enters the guided first-run wizard, at the bottom of the sidebar.

If your system is already configured, open Home and launch any of:
Showmaker
NRCS Plugin
Rundown Viewer
Smart Panel
Prompter
Named Overlays Editor
Template Editor (Early Access, shown once enabled in App Configuration).
If this is your first running of the Configuration Tool, or you will start using a new Web App, you must make some one-time configurations,
as described in section Configuration Tool. The quickest route on a fresh installation is the Quick setup wizard, which opens on first run.

Note: The Timing Display web app was removed in Mosart Web Apps 3.1. Its capabilities are provided by Smart Panel. See Timing Display for the migration notes.

Antivirus

Vizrt does not recommend or test antivirus systems in combination with Vizrt products, as the use of such systems can potentially lead to performance losses. The decision for the use of antivirus software and thus the risk of impairments of the system is solely at the customer's own risk.

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).
