Log Toolbar

The Log Navigation toolbar simplifies the process of viewing the desired Station, Date, and Hour. The following Navigation aids are available in the toolbar of the Logs Module:

Flat File: Load or Reconcile manually - The Flat File button is used to load a flat file with Traffic and Music or reconcile a log using a created Flat File Assignment. This button will open the Manual Flat File Load / Reconciliation window for the default assignment. When traffic is reloaded a second time, a window opens to the previously processed files with the file name of the processed file. By default, assets that are loaded into Spot Blocks are loaded from the top of the spot block down. Use the Traffic Load Position Control Event to control where traffic loads in a spot block. When traffic is loaded into the current day, Traffic Load will request the queue from the sequencer and avoid loading into spot blocks that are less than 180 seconds (3 minutes) from the currently playing event. Right-click on an assignment in the list will make that assignment the default.

When the window is reduced in size the toolbar buttons will be hidden and a drop-down button will be shown to allow access to these hidden toolbar buttons.

Hour Selection

The Hour Selection area is located along the bottom of the toolbar. To navigate to a specific hour of the selected log, simply click on the hour number. 

Search

Use the Search button in the toolbar to open/close the Search box. The Search box is found in the column header row in the right side of the window. Optionally, press CTRL+F to display the search box. Simply enter the text to search. Values that match in the Log will be highlighted. Zetta will search all visible columns and child events for a match.

Zetta will narrow the search as the search value is typed. Use the Previous and Next buttons to the right of the search text box to move through the findings. Optionally, use F3 to move to the next finding and Shift+F3 to move to the previous finding.

Use the Close button, Esc key or the Search button to close the Search box. This will close the search box, but Zetta will retain the search string.

The Open, Previous and Next keyboard shortcuts can be changed in the Command Mappings window of the System Configuration using the following commands:

• LogEditor.Find - This will open the Search box in the Logs/Clocks module. The default is CTRL+F
• LogEditor.FindNext - This will move to the next found event in the log based on what is typed in the search box. The default is F3. If the Search box is not open this command will first open the search box.
• LogEditor.FindPrevious - This will move to the previous found event in the log based on what is typed in the search box. The default is Shift+F3. If the Search box is not open this command will first open the search box.

Log Events List

The Log Events List allows the user to quickly view information for past logs and make manual modifications to logs not yet played. The log can be voice tracked and edited using the Event section of the Logs Module, see the Voice Tracker^® topic in this guide for more details on voice tracking a log. The colors, fonts and font sizes for the Log can be changes using the Theme Management configuration. An Asset can be auditioned by simply middle-clicking the desired asset. The following topics discuss the different aspects of the Events list.

Default Log Event List Columns

Additional Log Event List Columns

Gap Time

Top of Hour

Default Log Event List Columns

The [+] and [-] controls are used to expand and contract Spot Blocks, Shows and Macros. Optionally, double-click the event to expand or contract the contents of these events.

Airtime column shows the scheduled airtime of the event. An icon is shown before the event if an event is a Hard-timed event, an Injected event. An icon is also displayed if the Segue has been manually adjusted by the user and if the event was Faded Early to meet an ETM. Hover the mouse pointer over the icon for additional information about the event.

Stream column shows the stream that will be used to play an asset event. When the station is configured as a Master Splits station the stream number will reflect the color selected in Themes & Appearances for the splits behavior of the event.

Event column shows the events in the log and the progress position. The Playing Item Border and the Playing item Background can be changed in the General section for the Log Editor in the Themes & Appearances Configuration window.

• As events play, the progress of the event shows in the background of the event description. The colors of the progress bars can be changed in the Progress Bars section of the Log Editor section of the Themes & Appearances Configuration.

Tip: When using Splits the progress bar for silent events can be changed. The Silent Log Event Progress Bar option in Themes & Appearances changes the color of the progress bar for an event that is silent. This includes Spot Block headers, Master Silent Assets, Macro headers etc. This color change is shown in the Log, On-Air, Stacks, Hot Keys and Z-Player Modules.

• If an intro is set, the intro of the event will be shown in yellow and the time display will show the time of the intro and/or the time to the end of the intro. The color will increase with intensity with each intro set in the Song. The colors of the progress bars can be changed in the Progress Bars section of the Log Editor section of the Themes & Appearances Configuration.

• This progress bar will change color twice during the event. The colors of the progress bars can be changed in the Progress Bars section of the Log Editor section of the Themes & Appearances Configuration.:

  • When 10 seconds remain in the event, the progress bar will display the following color.
    

  • When 5 seconds remain, the progress bar will switch to another color.
    

• If the Show Progress for Live Events is enabled in the Playback tab on the Station Configuration and the event is a Live Event, the progress bar will display in Purple when using Manual or Live Assist mode. Once the Live Event gets to 10s and 5s left it will change to the 10s left and 5s left progress bars shown above (just like normal Assets). The colors of the progress bars can be changed in the Progress Bars section of the Log Editor section of the Themes & Appearances Configuration.
  
• If the event has a cue point marker it will display in red. Hovering the mouse over the red cue point will show the name of the cue point.
  
• When an event is Paused, the event will show the progress of the paused event with a yellow glow around the progress bar. The Paused Item Border can be changed in the General section for the Log Editor in the Themes & Appearances Configuration window.
  
• To the right of the event description, the user can view the time elapsed and the time remaining in the event. Double-Clicking the time will toggle the display to show either the time remaining to the segue…
  
  …Or the time elapsed and the total runtime of the event.
  
• The event list also displays an icon signifying the type of media event that is scheduled to play and any note associated with the event. The color of these icons will vary based on the Themes & Appearances Configuration. The following is a list of these icons:
   Song,  Spot, Link, Spot Block, Custom Asset Types,  Asset with Note, Asset with Script, Live Event, Live Event with Confirmation, Marked as Read, Voice Track or Live VT, Quick Record, Record, / Show, Tags, Mini-Log, Rotation, Imaging, Bed with Auto-Fade, Bed No Fade (Donut) and Macro, ETM
  When a Show is placed in the log it shows a shortcut icon . This means it is just a reference to the show. Any changes to the show in the Library will be shown in the log. When the sequencer executes the Show the show contents is then copied to the log and the show icon changes . At this point any changes to the log are not reflected within the Show in the Library and any changes to the Show in the Library are not reflected in the playing show in the log. When Tags, Rotations and Imaging events are queued they resolve to the asset that will play and the icon also changes to show the asset type that will be played.
  Clicking the Note or Scripts icons, in the On-Air module and Logs window, will display the Notes preview window.

If there is something wrong with the asset the icon represented above will show a warning or an Error . Simply hover the mouse over the warning or error and Zetta will display a tool tip to help in resolving the issue. Error Events can be themed in the Log Editor section of the Theme & Appearances window.

• When a Spot Block or Macro is played the Log, the progress of the Spot Block or Macro and the Spot or Macro event playing is displayed, while in the On-Air Module the number of events played and the number of total events is shown.
  

• When the Fill Length and Control Text are set for the Spot Block. The Log event will show the Fill: Fill Length | Ctrl: Control Text next to the Spot Block title.
  
• Events in the past will be shown in the log in italic and the opacity adjusted so it appears "dimmer" than log events in the future. The Past Log Event Opacity in the Themes & Appearances Configuration window can be used to adjust how dim the events in the past look.
  
• Comments are shown as text.

Status column shows what happened or is happening to an event, the color of some of these icons can be changed in the Log Event Status Icons section of the Themes & Appearances Configuration window. Simply hover the mouse over the status icon to view a tooltip about the status.

Chain Type column shows the action that is to be performed when the current event ends. The Segue and Stop chain types are available for all audio events. The Auto Post and Link-Song chain types are available for Links, Voice Tracks, Quick Recordings, Custom Assets and External Log events. Songs and Spots only support Segue and Stop chains. The Chain Type can be changed in the stations log by clicking on the chain type icon for the scheduled event. A default chain type can be set for events that are inserted into Logs, Clocks, Shows and Mini Logs for each user using the Event chain when inserting into Logs, Clocks, Shows and Mini Logs setting in the User Preferences. A Chain Override can be set on each asset, in the Extra tab of the asset metadata card, so the asset will always use the same chain type when insert into a Logs, Clocks, Shows and Mini Logs. See also the Setting the Chain Type in the Segue Editor topic of the Features section of the guide. The color of these chain icons can be changed in the in the Log Editor section of the Theme & Appearances window.

	Stop - Stop will stop the playback of the log after the event plays.
	Segue - Segue will segue the current event into the next event.
	Auto Post - The Auto Post Chain type allows the Link to be back-timed from the Intro of the Song about to play. The Song and Link are then started by the sequencer and synchronized so the Link finishes at the end of the Intro period. See the Auto Posting Events topic for more information.
	Link-Song - Link-Song will set the start of the next event at the early segue point of the previous event, so long as the intro is not too short, then the link ends at the intro of the next event. If the event does not have an early segue point Zetta will follow the setting for the 'Link-Song Chain Segue Alignment when Early Segue Mark is not set on the Link' option in the Log Settings tab of the Stations Configuration.

Skip column shows if the event was or will be skipped. The event is also shadowed in gray by default. To delete an event from the log, highlight the event and press Shift+Delete to remove the event. The user will be prompt to confirm the deletion. This Appearance can be changed in the Themes & Appearances configuration window.

Fixed - The Fixed column displays a lock in the column showing the event is a fixed event that is required to play, Backtiming will be performed to account for the fixed event. The fixed option can be enabled or disabled in the properties window for the event. Optionally, click the fixed icon/column to display a menu allowing for the stretch to be enabled or disabled.

Tip: This Fixed property, in the properties window, will be disabled if the user doesn't have right to "Edit Properties" in Log. Exact Time Markers and Top of hour are by default Fixed and disabled. Spot Block and Macro are Fixed and disabled when the Fixed Events Log settings are enabled in the Station Configuration window.

The event will also be set as Fixed when inserted if the Default to Fixed for inserts option is set for Logs in the Station | Log Event Settings window.

Stretch - The Stretch column will show the stretch icon for the event that is being stretched to ETM. The stretch option can be enabled or disabled in the properties window for the event. Optionally, click the stretch icon/column to display a menu allowing for the stretch to be enabled or disabled.

Additional Log Event List Columns

Additional information can be displayed in the Logs Module to customize the view. The following are the columns of information that can be added to the Logs Module by right-clicking anywhere in the header of the event list:

Asset - Asset expands to another menu allowing the user to choose a field associated with a library asset.

Description – The Description column is used for adding a description to the event as it is in the log

EditCode – The Edit Code gives useful information about changes made to the log based on the status (User-copied, User-moved, Skipped, Sequencer resync) in alpha numeric format

ErrorCode – The Error Code displays any error code as to why an event did not play, such as missing audio, player not running, etc.

GUID (Log Event) - The GUID is a unique identifier used in GSelector Integration to keep the events in sync.

GUID (Reference Log Event) - The 'GUID (Reference Log Event)' column is used for ZCast. This column will show the GUID (Log Event) of the other site.

HardtimeOffset - The HardtimeOffset column shows the time in seconds from the last hard timed event in the Log.

Hour - The Hour column shows the Hour number for each hour, this is based on military time.

LogEventId - The LogEventId is the ID number that Zetta uses to track the event.

Progress Counter - The Progress Counter displays the progress of the currently playing asset and the following 2 assets in the log.

Runtime – The Runtime field will display the amount of time the asset will take to play from Trim In to Segue. If integrated with GSelector the runtime sent to GSelector is the Mix In to Segue. If the Mix In is not set the Trim In to Segue will be sent as the runtime.

Split Behavior column shows an icon when a split behavior is selected for the scheduled asset. The Split Behavior column is visible when Splits are enable in the System Configuration | General tab.

• Master Audio - A Split Behavior of Master Audio tells the Master station to play the audio and send a signal to the subscribing Split Clients to play a tagged asset on the client station. If the asset is not in a tagged group the Split Client station will play the same asset as the Master Station, if the asset is active on the subscribing station. When an asset's Split Behavior is set to Master Audio a Master Audio icon will be visible in the Split Behavior column of the Log.
• Master Silent - A Split Behavior of Master Silent tells the master station to be silent and send a signal to the subscribing Splits Clients to play a tagged asset on the client station. If the asset is not in a tagged group the Split Client station will play the asset scheduled on the Master station, if the asset is active on the subscribing station. When an asset's Split Behavior is set to Master Silent a Master Silent icon will be visible in the Split Behavior column of the Log.
• Master Monitor - A Split Behavior of Master Monitor will route the audio for the asset to the configured Monitor streams of the Player for the Master Station and send a signal to the subscribing Splits Clients to play a tagged asset on the client station. If the asset is not in a tagged group the client station will play the same audio asset that is scheduled on the Master Station, if the asset is active on the subscribing station. Master Monitor allows the user to hear the audio locally for the Master Station even though nothing is playing over the air for the Master Station. When an asset's Split Behavior is set to Master Monitor a Master Monitor icon will be visible in the Split Behavior column of the Log.

StatusCode – Status Code gives the event status code in alpha format, such as Ready, Queued, Played, Not Played etc.

Stop Time – Stop Time gives the time the event stopped playing.

Stream – Stream is used to view the stream the event will use when played. Hover the mouse over the number to view information about the play device being used.

Gap Time

The bottom of the Logs window shows the time of the next scheduled ETM and the Gap Time from the currently playing event to the ETM. A negative gap time means the estimated time to the ETM is under scheduled. A positive gap time means the estimated time to the ETM is over scheduled. The positive gap time displays the gap with pre-drops applied but as if the last event will not fade early. A tooltip is shown when hovering the mouse over the Gap Time and the Pre-fade icon.

Top of Hour

Each hour of the Log is marked with a Top of Hour comment. The Top of Hour comments can be set an ETM Type in the ETMs & Fill tab of the Station Configuration window. This setting defaults to Reset.
