Using the EWP Mode with the BEPlay
Remote

The BEPlay must be physically connected and recognized by the IPDirector hardware.
The channels must have been assigned to the remote Function buttons as described in
the section ‘Assigning Channels to Function Buttons’ in the chapter ‘System Management
– Remote Control Management – BEPlay Remote’ of the manual.

The player channel associated to the TLO cannot be controlled by the BEPlay.

The player channels from the timeline engine of the TLE can be controlled as follows.
Pressing the Function button assigned to the odd player channel gives access to the
IPEdit Timeline pane. Pressing the Function button assigned to the even player channel
gives access to the IPEdit Player pane.

Refer to the BEPlay Remote section of the manual for more information on the controller.

Master/Slave Redundancy

7.2.1.

Introduction

Purpose

The Master/Slave redundancy feature is available with the Edit While Playout mode. It
makes it possible to synchronize the content of a timeline being edited on the Master
(main) EVS server running IPEdit to a Slave (backup) EVS server also running IPEdit.

This redundancy allows providing a failover mechanism when using the Edit While
Playout mode in IPEdit.

Terminology

To make it short, we will use the following terms:

"Master IPEdit" to refer to the IPEdit application working with the Master EVS server

"Slave IPEdit" to refer to the IPEdit application working with the Slave EVS server.
