Content Management Window

To distribute contents, the BZNP-D1 software handles source materials such as video, graphics, text, Flash files, and URL data of Web pages, playlists, and schedules such as daily and periodic schedules. Those data items are displayed on the various category tabs in the Content Management window, according to their data types.

The listed items differ depending on the data type. The illustration below shows an example when the Video tab is displayed.

Materials and control commands can be used in common with all NSP-1 groups. Playlists and schedules are managed separately according to NSP-1 groups, hence

only the playlists and schedules for the selected group are displayed.

Notes

•You can select the data types to be displayed. Unnecessary material data will not be displayed, depending on the system configuration in effect.

•Data are classified and managed according to the video formats (NTSC or PAL). Only data for the format selected in the System Setup window are displayed.
