The Clear All Clips command will only delete the non-protected clips. The clips

stored on protected pages as defined in the Setup, as well as the clips protected
by another protocol, or clips included in playlists, will not be deleted by this
operation.

To clear all non protected clips, proceed as follows:

1.

Go to the Main menu (SHIFT + MENU)

2.

Press the function key F7 on the Remote.

3. Press

ENTER or CLEAR on the Remote Panel to confirm/cancel the

operation.

4.

If the system is connected to the XNet network, an additional confirmation is
required.

A message on the video monitor will notify the operator when the operation is

complete.

Important

The Clear All Clips command is different from the Clear Video Disks
command available from Maintenance menu in EVS software.

The Clear All Clips command only deletes non-protected clips.

The Clear Video Disks command from EVS’ Maintenance menu is more

radical and definitely erases all video and audio data from disks. Clips
stored in protected pages are also deleted.

Copying a clip gives a new clip which is totally independent from the original. It
can therefore be trimmed, named, deleted, etc. without affecting the original.

Copying or moving a clip on the same EVS server as the original is always done in
LONG mode. You can perform short copies of clips locally, which only copy the

material from the SHORT IN point to the SHORT OUT point.

Copying clips on the same server does not duplicate the original material on the
video drives: it simply creates a separate reference to the same video material.
This means that the capacity will not decrease when making copies of clips on the
same machine. It also means that deleted copies of clips will not increase the

available capacity of the server, as long as 1 instance of the clip remains.

Copying clips across the network will reduce the capacity of the server where the
clip(s) is (are) copied by the duration of the clip(s).
