Template Example #1

log_template.txt

#---------------------------
# This is a sample template for Custom AsRun log rules
#
# In addition to usually supported playlist variables $(var), the following variables can be used
#
# $(job_year) $(job_mon) $(job_day) $(job_hour) $(job_min) $(job_sec) $(job_frm) - The actual time the related media started
# $(cur_year) $(cur_mon) $(cur_day) $(cur_hour) $(cur_min) $(cur_sec) $(cur_frm) - The actual time this event occurred
# $(dur_hour) $(dur_min) $(dur_sec) $(dur_frm) - The actual duration of the time the related media started to this event occurring
# $(on_air) - Airing status
# $(media_state) - Media state
# $(event) - Logging event that occurred
#
# The header only supports $(cur_year) $(cur_mon) $(cur_day) $(cur_hour) $(cur_min) $(cur_sec)
#
# After the variable name, arguments can be added to modify how the variable will be displayed
# $(event) -> $(event,ralign,width:10)
# width - Set strict width for text to be displayed
# ralign - Align to right of text block, needs to have width set
# As well, variable values can be mapped to different values by using =
# $(gpi1_mode,on=ENABLED,off=DISABLED,none=), if gpi1_mode is 'on' 'ENABLED' will be logged, if 'off' 'DISABLED' will be logged, if 'none' then no characters will be written
##
# The template for graphics events starts with the '^' symbol in the beginng of the line. Same parameter as for the main event
# and the same rules apply
#
#----------------------------

!   This will be the header text for this log, it will only be written when this log is opened, ! is used to set header lines
!   Today's date: $(cur_year)-$(cur_mon)-$(cur_day)

• EQUAL – the condition is true, if the Variable column value completely coincides with the Value field (case matters). Example: (Skylark and Skylark = true), (Skylark and skylark = false), (Skylark and Server = false).
• NOT EQUAL – the condition is true, if the Variable column value does not coincide with the Value field (case matters). Example: (Skylark and Skylark = false), (Skylark and skylark = true), (Skylark and Server = true).
• CONTAINS – the condition is true, if the Variable column value contains a substring specified in the Value field (case matters). Example: (Skylark and kylar = true), (Skylark and sky = false).
• NOT CONTAINS – the condition is true, if the Variable column value does not contain a substring specified in the Value field (case matters). Example: (Skylark and kylar = false), (Skylark and sky = true).

• AND – logical “and”. Action condition=true, if both conditions are equal to “true”.
• OR – logical “or”. Action condition=true, if one or both conditions are equal to “true”.

• Keypoint Track – specifying the track value (standard values: General, Segments, Segment End, Secondary Event, Cue Point). An empty field coincides with any track.
• Keypoint Title – an empty field coincides with Keyframe Title value.
