Four status icons are possible:

(gray): The GX clip is offline. This

means it is defined in the GX server

database, but not yet uploaded on the

GX Clips drive.

(orange): The GX clip is being

imported or put online.

(green): The GX clip is online. This

means it is defined in the GX server

database and uploaded on the GX Clips

drive.

(red): Error.

Clicking the green or orange status icon

switches the GX clip offline, while

clicking the gray status icon switches

the GX clip online (see also section

5.4.3 'Switching GX Clips Online or

Offline', on page 45).

5.4.3 Switching GX Clips Online or Offline

Principles

Offline GX clips are defined in the GX server database but not yet uploaded on the GX

Clips drive. When GX clips are offline, they are fully editable and can be edited in the Edit

GX Clips window (See also section 5.5).
When the clips are ready for playout, you need to upload them to the GX Clips drive: this

is the process of putting the GX clips

online. Only the GX clips imported using the Direct

Import option are automatically put online.

Important
Offline GX clips are not visible to the protocol clients.
Online GX clips only will be

visible to the protocol clients when the GX server

will be started.

Procedure

To put a GX clip online or to take it offline, just click its status icon in the Action filed, or

proceed as follows:
1. In the GX Clips tab, select the GX clips to be put online/offline.
2. Press the

Switch online/offline button.

During an upload, the progress bar shows how much of the GX Clip has been copied to

the GX Clips drive.
