In addition, the iNEWS Command system offers native control of the Avid Deko family of graphics-creation systems and the Avid Thunder line of clip and still-store servers, providing seamless integration within an Avid broadcast workflow environment. Specific features of the system include:

In addition, the iNEWS Command system offers native control of the Avid Deko family of graphics-creation systems and the Avid Thunder line of clip and still-store servers, providing seamless integration within an Avid broadcast workflow environment. Specific features of the system include:
- Flexible Playlist Functionality - enables playlists to load from the newsroom computer system or manually within Avid iNEWS Command; playlists can even be embedded within other playlists;
- Manual and Automated Triggering - allows items to be manually played back by the operator, triggered via GPI, linked with other clips to block play, or automatically played based on the time of day for total integration with the facility, its systems, processes, and staff;
- Mirrored Playback - allows a single play command to initiate playback on two channels simultaneously;
- Advanced Playback Features - enables users to automatically cue items as needed if and when playlists change, and provides simultaneous playback while video files are still being transferred, for increased time savings and status awareness;
- Open Integration - provides easy configuration to control any combination of Avid Thunder, Avid AirSpeed, and Avid Deko systems that are operating in an NRCS environment;
- Intuitive Interface - provides visual tools that show time elapsed and time remaining, and channel assignments for easy identification of transmission paths, and colour-coded status indicators that illustrate the inventory of assets based on availability and playability on all devices;
- Instant Status Display - providing a range of powerful visual tools, including clocks that show time elapsed and time remaining, channel assignments for easy identification of transmission paths, and colour-coded status indicators that illustrate the inventory of assets based on availability and playability on all devices.
