Viewing Video Associated with a Script
 
When sequences have been associated with stories in the MediaCentral UX Web application, you can preview the stories in the media viewer in the MediaCentral Android application.
*If your MediaCentral system is licensed for an iNEWS- only configuration, you cannot preview or play sequences or other media assets.
When you open a story with an associated video with a script, you use the Sequence tab to open the viewer and preview the sequence. The Sequence tab displays only for stories that have an associated sequence.

Description
The Play button plays the sequence so you can preview the video associated with the story. This button changes to a Pause button while the sequence plays.
The Playhead allows you to navigate to a new position in the viewer’s video playback timeline.
The Maximize button expands the viewer to full screen.
You can view video sequences created in the following way:
A sequence created and modified the sequence in MediaCentral UX.
A sequence created in MediaCentral UX and modified it in NewsCutter or Media Composer. In this case, you might not see some effects in the media viewer.
A sequence created in Instinct and modified it in MediaCentral UX.

To view video sequences associated with a script:
1. Tap the Sequence tab to open the viewer.
2. Tap the Play button.
The sequence plays in the viewer. You can rotate your Android device to view the video in landscape or portrait mode. The viewer controls do not display after 3 seconds of play. The controls display when you tap the device screen or pause playback.
