Peace, Ashley Kimsey Education Operations Specialist  TIPS AND TRICKS FOR PROGRAMMING Thanks to everyone who submitted their tips and tricks to me! I have enough content for the rest of the year. So let’s get crackin! I decided to go with Josh Schinke’s tip first! Josh is from Automation Arts, and he has a good one for all of you! “One of my favorite things to do that I see get missed a lot is when programming a media room tie the lights into the programming. When the theater turns on have them dim, when you press pause have them brighten, play dims, and off brightens. Then after a few minutes once the room has been turned off and the lights are on have them turn off. Really basic but cool.” – Josh Schinke DOWNLOAD THE STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE HERE >>      THE NEW OVRC UPDATE MIGHT BE WHAT YOU WERE WAITING FOR Do you have third-party products dropping offline?
