SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED GENERATION OF AUDIO/VIDEO CONTROL INTERFACES

摘要

A system for automating generation of an audio/video (AV) control interface includes a computing device having a processor to enable a user, with a user interface of the computing device, to configure the AV system. The processor may enable the user to draw output zones to create a representation of a geographical layout of a venue in which the AV system is located. The processor may enable the user to place transmitting and receiving AV devices within the output zones that substantially represent physical locations thereof within the venue. The processor may enable the user to logically associate receiving AV device channels of receiving AV devices within an output zone. The processor assigns parameters of the associated AV devices to a control interface for user control thereof. To do so, the processor identifies controllable parameters associated with the AV devices associated with the output zone. The processor assigns a data storage structure associated with each respective controllable parameter to the control interface. The processor launches the control interface in an application window having integrated therewith the controllable parameters and a menu selection of a source AV signal.
