Using Action Buttons

Titler Live comes with Action buttons to help you set the way your titles behave when you push them live. Action buttons give you the option to set up two options for easy access.

You can choose from Auto, Auto In, In/Out and Take options. Once set, you can click on the button to perform that particular action on a title that is queued as next.

Auto: This mode will play the full animation of your title. When a current title is active, it will finish a title's animation and animate the next title in seamlessly.

Auto In: This mode will play the first half of the total title's animation, skipping the "Out" animation. If a title is live, it will automatically move on to the next title and play the title's "In" animation.

In/Out: This mode will take a title's animation to the next step. For example, if a title is currently live, it will end the animation by playing the "Out" animation. If the title is currently queued, it will play the "In" animation.

Take: This mode will automatically cut the current title and immediately display the currently queued title. This is useful for quick, hard title cuts or emergency situations.

You can see your titles and make changes while a title is currently live. You may also click on the live state icon area to immediately push it live.

Live-State Button Legend

Live state buttons can be one of three colors. Yellow, Red or Purple.

Red indicates a title that is currently live, where yellow indicates the next title in line to respond to a command.

A title that is currently live can also be queued up to listen to a command manually by clicking on the red live-state icon. This will turn the icon Purple.

This means that both your current title and the title with the yellow live-state icon will listen to your next action command.

Linking and Unlinking Titles

Titler Live comes with the option to link and unlink titles in the playlist. Unlinked titles are signaled by a pin icon. A title is becomes unlinked when the icon is enabled.

Unlinking titles from the playlist makes them immune to action buttons and essentially separates them from the rest of the playlist. They will be unaffected by any action commands unless indicated to do so. You can click on the live state icon of an unlinked title to set it as next to receive an action.
