Associating Player Channels in PGM/PRV
Mode

Purpose

IPDirector is able to play a series of clips or a playlist with its transition effects. A single
player channel will be sufficient if it supports the "Mix on one channel" functionality.
Otherwise, two player channels must be used and they must be set to PGM/PRV mode.

The association of two player channels in PGM/PRV mode can be set from the Channel
Explorer, the Control Panel and the Playlist Panel.

Limitation

You can only make a PGM/PRV pair of PGM1-PGM2 or PGM3-PGM4, and so on. The
odd numbered player channel is always set to PGM and the even numbered player
channel is always set to PRV.

How to Associate Player Channels in PGM/PRV Mode from
the Channel Explorer

To associate channels in PGM/PRV mode, proceed as follows:

1. Select two channels with SHIFT+click or CTRL+click.

2. Right-click one of the selected channels.

3. Select Pgm/Prv or press CTRL+M.
