The validity dates specify from and until when the bin rule will be applied. The
clips, playlists or timelines matching the bin rules will not be copied to the bin the

day before the Validity from [date] field and no longer be copied after the day
specified in the Validity until [date] field.

The default Validity from [date] is set to the current day and the default validity
period is one day.

Depending on the validity dates for the bin rule, different icons will be displayed in

the tree view, next to the bin:

Bin Rule Icon

Meaning

(blue)

The bin rule has a Validity from [date] programmed in the
future and is not yet active.

(green)

The bin rule is active and the Validity until [date] is later
than the current day.

(red)

The bin rule will expire at the end of the current day.

The validity date is calculated against the current date and time as defined on the
EVS video server. This is displayed in red, in the top right corner of the IPDirector
main window.
