The Aux Clip option allows you to add a new audio track to play
from the start of a play-list. For Example when a music bed
needs to be played at the same time as the original audio
associated with the elements of a list or a particular clip needs
to be used instead of the original element audio. The auxiliary
audio clip selected is always played back with normal speed
(100%), whatever the selected playback speed for the video.
When the playback of the play-list is not started from the
beginning, the system calculates the offset between the current
position and the beginning of the play-list, and applies the same
offset to the Aux Clip, so that it can remain synchronised with
the play-list. If the duration of the Aux Clip is longer than the
play-list duration, the auxiliary audio clip keeps playing even
after the video has stopped. Otherwise, the audio clip ends itself
before the end of the play-list, when the audio clip reaches its
own OUT point.
Note
It is only possible to play an Aux Clip when the first 2
channels of an XT server are being used for playback,
If the play-list is loaded to PGM3 of a an XT server the
Aux track will not be present due to some limitations of
the XT server hardware.
