Creating Macros in the Control Room:
- Access Location Settings:
- From the main menu, go to Settings > Location Settings > Autopilot > Control Rooms.
- Select the control room you want to edit.

- Choose the devices you want to include in this control room. For this example, I added VIO Encoder 1, VIO Playback 1, and Channel Output.

- Name your macro and assign a hotkey.
- Step 1: Start recording.
- Select Device Action > Specific Device > VIO Encode 1 > Record.
- Name the file (e.g., "City Council Meeting").
- Step 2: Start closed captioning.
- Label it as "Closed Captioning."
- Select Device Action > Specific Device > Encoder 1 > Start Transcribing.
- Click Done.
- Create a Stop Recording, Captioning, and Start CG Macro:
- Follow a similar process, but this time:
- Stop Recording:
- Select Device Action > Specific Device > Encoder 1 > Stop.

- Select Device Action > Specific Device > Encoder 1 > Stop Transcribing.
- Play CG:
- Select Device Action > Specific Device > VIO Playback 1 > Play CG.
