Author Topic: Doremi x ScreenWriter Vinicius Del Ciello Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Bauru-SP - Brazil Registered: Sep 2019 posted 10-12-2019 11:25 PM                     Hey guys, I need your help! I have six Doremi Showvault servers, and I make the playlists by TMS (screenwriter)! The problem is this... There are times when the cleaning crew delays and I need to remove some trailers and display only the advertising and the movie to not delay the next movie, and I delete the playlist trailers with Doremi and play the film (without saving any changes) but after a few minutes I go and check the playlist on the screenwriter and the changes I made on Doremi are there too, even without me having saved them!  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 10-12-2019 11:58 PM                        If I had to deal with that I would just make two playlists for each movie. A: Full program. B: Short program. Then play either A or B as needed. And there's no last minute panic switching stuff in and out.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-13-2019 04:12 AM                     That is odd. Maybe you could edit then save the shortened playlist (in the screen server) with a different name, then open and play it manually for that show. That will leave the original playlist unchanged... probably. I'm surprised that local changes without saving could get back to the LMS though. If you go back on schedule it should play the original unedited playlist as scheduled in Screenwriter.  |  IP: Logged Annli Com Expert Film Handler Posts: 140 From: ShibuPaul-India Registered: May 2014 posted 10-13-2019 06:01 AM                        Screen writer is only one live syncing TMS Softwares.  |  IP: Logged Vinicius Del Ciello Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Bauru-SP - Brazil Registered: Sep 2019 posted 10-14-2019 07:55 AM                     I had already thought of that possibility, but since that problem (among the six servers) only occurs on three of them, I thought it was some kind of Doremi's own auto-save configuration! Editing via Doremi in high-season periods is easier, because here I need to multitask haha, and there are times when I'm at the box office helping with something and they tell me on the radio that room Y will delay, and it is more convenient to do the work via Doremi while still at the box office, than to go to the TMS!  |  IP: Logged
