Light mode
Alternative SPX rundown workflow
SPX v 1.3.0 introduced an experimental Light Mode rundown, a floating rundown window with an embedded preview.
One of the main use cases for the light mode is to use it as a Custom Dock within OBS (Open Broadcast Software) or in a separate device such as a tablet or a mobile phone.
Rundown functionality in the light mode is a subset of the regular rundown and for example, you cannot add, remove or sort items using the light mode as it is not intended to be a replacement for the main SPX rundown.
Currently, the light and regular rundown states are not synced, so when an item is played in one, the rundown item's state in the other does not change.
To open the panel click on the wrench icon and then the Open Panel -button or alternatively add /light to the URL of an opened rundown view.
Custom Dock in OBS
In OBS, select menu item Docs > Custom Browser Docks... and add a new custom dock. You can name it to SPX Light for example and paste in the URL of it from the previously opened Light Mode window.
You only need to do this once, and when done you can always access SPX graphics from within OBS and no need to switch between windows when controlling graphics in OBS based productions.
