Working with Maestro News Assets
The Maestro News library is organized using a standard structure of folders and sub-folders. You can use the Browse app to navigate through the library just like any other MediaCentral module that is connected to MediaCentral Cloud UX.
The following table describes each of the asset types found in the Maestro database.
Asset Type | Description |
Page | A page is a data entry template that uses scene graphics. Pages can be modified by users to include custom data. Once modified with custom content and saved, a page becomes an item. |
Item | An item is an instance of a page that identifies graphical templates containing the data, animation, tickers, or other elements that can be displayed during production. |
Media | Assets included in the Media directory of the Maestro News database can be added as elements to graphic templates or pages. |
Card and List Views
When using the Browse app, you can choose to display the results in either a List or Card view.
• If you select List view, each Maestro asset is displayed in a column view with a smaller thumbnail image and additional metadata.
• When you select Card view in the Browse app, each Maestro asset is displayed with a large thumbnail image and associated metadata.
For more information about Maestro-specific metadata types such as
