Note

If you are working with IPDirector and a number of EVS video server
machines in an XNet network, keep in mind that the total number of clips

on the entire network is limited to 32,000. This number is displayed in
the same area on the server VGA setup screen.

The following diagram represents the hierarchy of the XT clip numbering system.
As an example, clip number “129C” is used:

The number of the EVS video server within the network structure is also added, to
define the precise location of the clip. For example if clip 129C is stored on the
machine allocated with the network number 2, the clip would be identified as
129C/02.

The LSM ID is this identification made up of page nr + bank nr + position in the

bank + server nr.

4.3 VIRTUAL LSM ID / REAL LSM ID

The real LSM ID reflects the location where a XT hi-res clip or a XT lo-res clip will
be saved.

However, at the clip level, a single LSM ID is displayed for a clip. It is called the

virtual LSM ID.

It will be the LSM ID of the XT hi-res clip, if a XT hi-res clip is present in the

clip,
