The News Scroll Blurb / Commercial Break
Synchronizer is a device, or perhaps a
software module, that selects the
sequence of blurbs that appear on the
bottom of the screen on a cable news
channel based on an input sequence, such
that:
a) the last blurb to appear before the
cutover to
commercial break is displayed
completely.
b) the order of the input sequence is
modified as little as possible.
I think that the first criteria could probably
be achieved by changing the speed of the
scroll very slightly, as a one percent
change in speed over an eight minute
segment is almost five seconds. The
synchronizer could also change the
sequence of blurbs, for example, it could
delay a long blurb in favor of a shorter
one, the long blurb would be moved to
after the break, and the shorter one would
be moved from after the break to before
it.

Can you build in something that makes sure that the crawl across the bottom starts up at the same place it left off when the commercial came on? |
