How to use the Talkback feature in TVU Remote Commentator

Using the Talkback feature in TVU Remote Commentator allows event commentators and producers to use a separate audio channel to communicate with an individual group and all groups off-air.

To use the Talkback feature as the commentator:

  1. To initiate talkback in TVU Remote Commentator with your event producer, either click and hold the Talkback icon along the bottom of the commentary window or hold down the spacebar on your keyboard.
  2. The Talkback icon will turn red when active, and your microphone audio will go through an off-air back channel to your event producer.
  3. To stop talkback, release the mouse button from the Talkback icon or release the spacebar.

To use the Talkback feature as the event producer:

  1. When in the Coordinator Room, you will see buttons to Talk to All Groups, and to Talk to Each individual commentator group for the event.
  2. To speak with all commentators at the same time, click on the talk to all Groups button.
  3. To speak with a single group of commentators, look to the right side of the Coordinator Room window, and click on the Talk to Group button for that commentator group.
  4. The Talk to Group button will turn red when it’s active, and your microphone audio will go through an off-air back channel to your commentators.
  5. Click the button again to deactivate Talkback.

About TVU Remote Commentator

TVU Remote Commentator is a cloud-based commentary platform. On-air announcers and talent can call the action from their homes, hotel rooms, offices – wherever there’s an internet connection. Using a simple browser-based interface on a laptop or smart device, TVU Remote Commentator allows talent to simply log in and become part of the production. Talent sees a low-latency, high-quality preview of the event and can add commentary that’s 100% in sync with the program, thanks to TVU’s auto-sync technology.
