* Normally, pressing Stop a second time when a clip is playing resets the playhead to the start frame in
the same clip . The exception above occurs only when you are previewing the content of a different
MEM slot during playback.

NETWORK SHARING
Default media file folders ( Clips , Stills , etc.) are maintained for each session. This approach makes it easy to
locate items using the Custom File Browser , and is also convenient for other file management purposes.
The default media locations for the active session can be made
accessible across your local network. Share Media Folders and
Buffers in the File menu is on by default, and allows network clients
to update media in the active session, even while live. The following
session media locations are dynamically shared:
• Audio
• Clips
• Stills
• Titles
• Buffers
Note: Several ‘non - session dependent’ locations in the main
application folder are also shared. This allows applications such as
NewTek’s V irtual Set Editor, etc., running on external systems to
export directly to the local system. These network shares are
unaffected by the Share Media Folders and Buffers setting.
When suitable content is added to these shared folders, the Media Browser
provides immediate access to it. Simply select the session name (under Clips , Stills ,
etc.) in the Location List at left to reveal the updated files in the File Pane at right.
This is wonderfully convenient but should be approached with a measure of common sense. Network
bandwidth has fixed limits. Be judicious when tr
ansferring large files while ‘live’. You may be using the
network for many purposes – including streaming, or NDI video feeds from a 3Play™, LiveText™ and third
party software, as well as any unrelated traffic on the network.
SECTION 11.2
EDITING TITLE PAGES
On mouse-over, title page icons display a text edit gadget in their lower-left
corner (Figure 148).
Click this button (or select Edit Title in the icon context menu) to open the
pop-up Title Page Editor .
Opening the Title Page Editor during playback is permitted, so that Title Page
content can be edited even during display (changes are detected and shown
immediately).
Transferring very large files across
a network can time-consuming and
impacts both disk access and
network resources.
When these resources are already
heavily taxed, dropped frames on
streaming or video outputs, or
sluggish response to controls may
result.
We strongly urge you to gather
media assets before starting your
live
productions whenever
possible.
