The name of the Favorite changes. This does not affect the name of the asset, story, queue, or
rundown in iNEWS or Interplay Production.
To delete a Favorite:
1. Tap the Edit button.
2. Tap to the left of the directory, queue, or story you want to remove as a favorite destination. You
can select more than one at a time.
The selected item displays a check mark next to the title; gray circles indicate those not chosen.
3. Tap the Trash button.
The app deletes the selected items from your Favorites list.
4. Tap Done.
Working Offline with Cached Queues and Stories
You can use the MediaCentral UX mobile app to view queues and stories cached locally to your
mobile device without being connected to your station’s iNEWS newsroom computer system.
The Launch panel displays cached queues and stories in the Favorites list when you work in offline
mode.
The following notes apply to caching queues and stories:
You can work in presenter mode from a cached queue in offline mode.
Caching a queue might take some time, depending on the length of the queue. You can manually
cancel a cache operation. For more information, see “Caching Queues and Stories” on page 499.
If you manually cancel a cache operation, no part of the queue or story is saved.
You can cache a queue of up to 1000 stories. If a queue contains more than this limit,
MediaCentral UX caches only the first 1000 stories.
If an error occurs while caching stories — for example, if you lose your connection to the server
or if you lock your device — the cache operation is interrupted.
MediaCentral UX updates the cache contents only in the case of an successful operation. If you
have cached the same queue or story before, you can still access the old cache.
If a story or part of a story has been deleted from a queue marked for caching, it is skipped by the
cache operation.
If you designate both a queue and a story from the queue as favorites, the cache operation creates
two separate cached versions of the story, one within the cached queue and another for the
individually-cached story.
