5. Item Column

This left-most column displays sequential clip numbers within a playlist, and also a SKIP

checkbox which, when un-checked, will skip over a clip, while leaving it in the playlist.

6. GPO Column

The GPO column shows whether a general-purpose control output, (number 1 through 6) is
programmed to become active during playout of a clip. (An Image Server provides six GPI

outputs on a rear panel connector, which may be used to control switchers, character

generators or other devices.)

Time Displays, Buttons and Check-Boxes

The following buttons and check-box icons also appear in the Playlisting window:

PLAY / PAUSE (toggle)

When a Playlist is stopped, PLAY will cause the currently cued clip to play from its start. When the

Playlist is in PAUSE mode, PLAY will cause the Playlist to resume playing from the current

location. PAUSE stops the Playlist immediately, on the current frame of a clip.

STOP/SHOW

The Playlist will stop and video will go to black. The current clip will be re-cued from the

beginning. When a clip is cued, the button legend changes to SHOW. Pressing it will display the

first frame of the cued clip.

CUE
When a Playlist is running, CUE immediately prepares a selected clip for playback.

When the current clip is finished playing, the Playlist will play the Cued clip, followed by all

subsequent clips. This allows the user to jump over clips. The user may also re-cue a clip that has

already been played. In this case, the Playlist will restart from the selected clip, and all subsequent

events will be re-played in sequence.
