How to Synchronize the Timeline on the
Slave IPEdit

When you use the Edit While Playout mode in a Master/Slave configuration, proceed as
follow before you start using the Edit While Playout mode:

1. Start IPEdit on the IPD workstation working with the Master EVS server, and load the

timeline on which you want to work as usual.

2. Start IPEdit on the IPD workstation working with the Slave EVS server, and create a

timeline with the same A/V configuration as the timeline loaded on the Master IPEdit.

3. On the Slave IPEdit, click the

button.

After a few seconds, a timeline identical to the timeline loaded on the Master IPEdit is
loaded.

This timeline has the same name as the main one, but it has different IDs and is
stored on the Slave EVS server.

The same timelines are now loaded on the Master and Slave IPEdit. You can start
working in the Master IPEdit.

Working Process in a Master/Slave
Configuration

After both timelines have been loaded and synchronized for the first time in your Master
and Slave IPEdit, you will typically work in the following way:

1. Start the TLO playout on the Master IPEdit.

2. On the Slave IPEdit, click

to synchronize the TLO playout.

3. Edit the TLE on the Master IPEdit.

4. On the Master IPEdit, click

to apply the changes from the TLE to the

TLO.

5. Click

to synchronize the TLE of the Slave IPEdit.

6. On the Slave IPEdit, click

to apply the changes from the TLE to the

TLO.

The steps 4 to 6 will be repeated each time you perform changes on the TLE on the Master
IPEdit.

Note
The functions that allow synchronization between the Master and the Slave
timelines are Sync and PlaySync.
The TLO Play, Pause, Recue, Speed Nudging, and Commit functions are used
independently (hence not synchronized) on the Master and the Slave IPEdit.
