The Newsroom plug-in is simply a bridge between the Content Engine and a Escenic broadcast system in which newsroom management functionality is handled by Avid iNEWS. In such a system, Viz Content Pilot's newsroom component is displayed inside the iNEWS client program and provides iNEWS users with access to video and graphics content managed by the Escenic broadcast system. For information about these system, see:
Your iNEWS documentation
The Newsroom plug-in makes use of the iNEWS FTP server and communicates with the server in active mode. You must therefore ensure that your network and firewall setup allows the use of active mode FTP.
