8.4.7 Export
In the Export window, playlists with its content and scenes can be exported to file.
This option supports export of templates, concepts, scripts, standalone and
transition logic scenes. Playlists and all parts of the templates are included in the
XML file, and scenes as a Viz archive.
Export of templates and scenes will, unless a shared export folder is mapped on
both the control and render machines, be exported to different folders. Export of
templates will normally be placed on the desktop of the current user, and Viz
archives to the Viz program folder (see Example paths and archives).
When exporting graphics a preview channel must be configured and used.
Note: Export of playlists created by newsroom systems, stored on the Media
Sequencer, is only supported by Viz Content Pilot versions 5.1.6 and later.

The archive will be placed in the Viz default folder. For
Viz 3.x it is the Viz 3.x program folder. For Viz 2.x it
is the archive folder under the Viz data root.
If the file extension is missing Viz will automatically
add one (e.g. archive.via for Viz 3.x).
If the file extension is not correct according to Viz, Viz
will simply replace the extension with the correct one
(e.g. archive.txt will become archive.via on Viz 3.x).
C:\temp\ archive.via The temp folder must be present on the Viz machine,
and the Viz user must have write access.
