Defines the default stop (still) and start modes of elements added to a playlist.
Still Mode
The still mode setting determines if the playlist should stop on the selected
element and if it should stop where it stops and how it should behave.
The options are:
•
Stop on first frame of current clip
•
Stop on last frame of previous clip
•
Stop on last frame of the previous clip, wait, then jump on first
The playlist will stop on the last frame of the previous clip, then jump on the
first frame of the selected element after a certain time which is defined in the
value box.
Start Mode
If a Still mode is defined, one of the following start modes must be defined on the
selected element. If Automatically was already selected when a Still mode is
defined, it will be changed to the Manually option of start mode as the modes are
mutually exclusive.
•
Manually: the selected element must be started manually (by a play or play var
command) on the Playlist Panel, keyboard or ShuttlePRO controller.
•
On GPI : the selected element will be started when a GPI trigger is received on
the corresponding EVS server (the one the playlist is to be played on). The GPI
number and its trigger mode are defined in the Tools > Settings > Input GPIS
category.
When On GPI is selected, the corresponding GPI, which has been configured
to start a PLAY command on the on-air channel associated to the Playlist
Panel, is displayed in the description field.

be started if the element is loaded on the channel at the specified time
(start-on-time).

be started even if the element is not loaded on the channel as far as the
playlist is loaded on the channel (jump-on-time).
