Replace function
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this function is to automate a routine used by operators to
create effects in a playlist : the operator would loop a section or an entire
playlist back to themselves and, during the playback, add some effects
externally (graphic insertion for instance) or internally (changing the
speed).
The operator would then edit the original playlist to insert the desired
section into the original playlist. That section would need to be inserted
in the playlist by matching the in/out frames on the original playlist to the
new clip created with the re-recorded material.
The replace function automates this process.
ENTERING THE REPLACE FUNCTION
Similar to the playlist, the replace function has two modes : the Replace
Playback mode and the Replace Edit mode.
A secondary menu has been added to the playlist edit mode. Pressing
Menu in Playlist Edit mode brings up the following menu :
Clr Unav.

Select Replace.
REPLACE EDIT MODE
Marking in and out points
When the Replace function is selected, the system enters the Replace
Edit mode. In this mode, the playlist is considered as one entity on which
you can mark one in point and one out point (pressing the in and out
points does not retrim the current playlist clip).
Those in and out points will be used to determine what portion of the
playlist will be replaced.
Marking the in and out points is done like on a record train, with the
exception that in and out can not be marked on a transition (including
split audio transitions and swap zones) or on a split zone (the key will
flash red when it is the case).
When both in and out have been marked, the display switches to :
Cam A +2fields
Replace Int.Loop Ext.Loop
The Int. Loop and Ext. Loop keys are blinking.
Note : depending on your configuration, the Int Loop mode may not be
available. This is true on HD-XT servers, whereas HD-XT[2] servers can
internally LOOP.
Choosing the Loop Mode
Before entering the Replace Playback mode, the operator has to choose
