What is a Graphics Management System?
A graphics management system allows you to create and manage graphic elements that are often used in broadcast workflows. When you connect one of these systems to MediaCentral Cloud UX, you can enable custom graphic workflows that allow you to integrate your graphics with areas of the Cloud UX user interface such as the Browse app, Search app, Rundown app, or others.
The MediaCentral Platform is designed to enable easy integration of both Avid and non-Avid systems. Graphics integration is a licensed feature. Before you can integrate any graphics management system with MediaCentral Cloud UX, your organization must purchase and apply a valid license using the MediaCentral Cloud UX Licensing app. For more information, see “Using the Licensing App” in the Avid MediaCentral | Cloud UX Installation Guide.
While Maestro News is used as an example graphics management system, the concepts described in this document might or might not apply to other graphics systems. If you are not using Maestro News, see the documentation that came with your graphics management system for supplemental information and custom workflows.
