6.8 THE PREVIEW CONTROL PANEL
The preview control panel is used to preview clips or trains or
play-list elements, in order to trim them on a different channel
than the one that the play-list is being played to air from. The
Preview option will not be present in the ’View’ menu of the play-
list editor if the ‘play-list’ code is not activated.
The preview panel has mostly the same interactivity and
functions as the traditional control panel. Refer to the Control
Panel chapter of the user’s manual for more information.
The differences are that there are:
• Options especially for using the panel within the Play-List
Editor to allow for direct insertion to the play-list and
modification of a clip already placed in the list.
• Any modifications to a clip are applied only to the clip in the
play-list and not to the original clip in the database.
• If a train is loaded on the PRV control panel, it is possible to
also create a clip in the panel.
