58 = Advanced Playlisting
NEXT
While a Playlist is stopped, NEXT will prepare the next clip in the Playlist for playback. While the
Playlist is running, NEXT will immediately begin playing the next clip in the Playlist. (The next clip
may require several seconds to load and cue for a seamless transition.)
If the next event in the Playlist is a HOLD, the NEXT command will move to the Hold event, and
video will display black.
JUMP
Cues a selected clip for immediate playback. This allows the user to jump over clips, and clips that
have been already played can be re-cued. In this case, the Playlist will restart from the selected
clip, and subsequent events will be re-played in sequence.
H (HOLD)
Inserts a HOLD event in a playlist immediately before the selected clip. The HOLD command is
also available in the Playlist Item Context Menu, accessed by clicking in the playlist item window.
The PLAY or JUMP command will restart a playlist after it has stopped on a HOLD line.
HOME
In the event the user has scrolled a distance up or down in the List to perform some action, and
then wishes to again make the currently-playing clip visible in the List View window, HOME will
do this, and will also maintain the currently-playing clip within the window, if EDIT is off. If no
clip is playing, then the currently-cued clip is selected.
Segment Time Remaining Window
This window displays time remaining from present until the next HOLD command in the list.
Total Time Remaining Window
This window displays the total time of all clips that remain unplayed, including the present one.
Scheduled Start Time Window
This window can display a scheduled (time of day) start time for a playlist. When armed to start or
actually running, the time in this window appears in red. Click on any of the hours, minutes,
seconds or frames fields to edit it. Use the left and right arrow keys to change fields.
Play On Schedule checkbox
If a Scheduled Start Time has been entered, checking this box will arm it to begin at that time. This
box will automatically un-check itself after a scheduled start has commenced.
Loop checkbox
When checked, the Image Server will loop the entire playlist after the last clip completes. Upon
un-checking, the list will play to completion and then playback will stop.
Edit checkbox
Editing operations can only be performed when the Edit box has been checked. This box protects
the playlist content from accidental modification. When EDIT is on, the playlist window does not
automatically track the currently playing clip.
