The Loop File function allows operators to repeatedly replay a selected portion of the video currently on-air.
This feature is useful in emergency situations where a specific section of content needs to be temporarily repeated while operators perform additional censorship operations or prepare the next action.
Activate Loop File
To activate an immediate loop:
1. Move the Timeline to the required section of the video content.
2. Define the desired portion to be repeated by setting the required marks.
3. Click the Loop File button located in the top-right area of the CENSOR EX interface.
Before activating the loop, the system displays a confirmation request.
After confirmation:
• The application waits a few seconds before starting the loop.
• The selected timeline section is repeatedly played on-air.
• The Loop File button changes color to indicate that the loop mode is active.
If no action is performed, the loop continues until the configured repetition limit is reached, after which the system automatically returns to normal playback.
Stop or Resume Loop File
While the loop is active, operators can control the function by clicking the Loop File button:
• Clicking the button stops the loop and restores normal playback.
• Clicking the button again resumes the loop operation.
Schedule Loop File
In addition to immediate activation, operators can schedule a loop operation to start automatically at a specific point in the timeline.
To schedule a loop:
1. Set the required marks on the video section that must be repeated.
2. Right-click the Loop File button.
3. Select Store Marks for Loop File.
A confirmation message indicating that the marks have been stored is displayed above the Loop File button.
4. Move to the future timeline position where the loop must start.
5. Right-click the Loop File button.
6. Select Scheduled Loop File at this Position.
The scheduled loop position is stored, and a confirmation message indicates that both the loop content and the start position have been configured.
Reset Scheduled Loop
To remove a scheduled loop:
1. Right-click the Loop File button.
2. Select Reset Marks for Loop File.
The stored loop configuration is removed, and the Loop File function returns to its default state.
The Loop File feature provides operators with a fast and flexible method to manage temporary content repetition during live broadcasts.
