6.2.3. Converting a Playlist Into a Timeline
Principles
The conversion from playlist to timeline follows the below-mentioned principles:
• The conversion is only possible on the local server where the playlist is stored.
• The conversion cannot be cancelled.
• When a target LSM ID is specified but not available, the conversion will not be done
and an error message is displayed.
• If an error occurs during the conversion, it will be displayed in the global status bar of
IPDirector.
Conversion Methods
You can convert a playlist to a timeline from different modules;
• In IPEdit, by dragging a local playlist from the Browser to the Timeline pane.
• In the DB Explorer, by selecting the Convert to Timeline command from the
contextual menu in the Playlist grid.
• In the Playlist Panel, by selecting the Convert to Timeline command from the
Playlist contextual menu.
Performing one of these actions opens the Make Timeline Online window.
Make a Timeline Online Window
The Make Timeline Online window opens in IPEdit when you drag an online playlist to the
Timeline pane, in order to convert the playlist to a timeline.
