Program Title Dialog

Program Titles are used primarily to communicate, via the log, program elements to an operator of DCS, Maestro or XStudio. Usage of Program Titles is most common for live-assist hours of the broadcast day.

When you have completed editing and press the [OK] button, your entries are validated and, if incorrect or missing, you get a warning message and the cursor is placed in the field that needs to be corrected.
