Mo
The Mo feature appears as a toolbar below the main toolbar. Mo provides playback control of animation, video and sound files playing from anywhere in MediaShout. He can also be used to open and play animation, video and sound files that aren't even assigned to cues. In this sense, he can serve as an instant Animation, Video or Audio cue.
 
To open or close Mo: Choose Features > Mo (or click his button in the main toolbar).
 
 
The Mo toolbar contains the following elements, from left to right:
 
–       Mo menu button: Click this button to bring up a menu for opening Mo's help topic and preferences. All layout, background and playback settings are chosen in the Mo Preferences dialog.
 
–       Playback controls: Use the Play, Pause and Stop buttons to control the playback of any animation, video or sound file playing from a cue or Mo himself. The playback slider indicates the current media position and can be used to jump to a particular place in a clip.
 
–       Clip information: The current video or sound clip's total length and elapsed time are indicated here, in hh:mm:ss. When a Flash file is current, its length is expressed in frames; the current frame number is also displayed.
 
–       File field: The name of the file loaded in Mo appears here. Click the field to bring up a list of recently loaded media files – select a file from the list to reload the file.
 
–       Fire button: Click this button to play the loaded media file.
 
–       Open button: Click this button to select an animation, video or sound file to load into Mo.
