elements on an EVS server.

Element Boundaries
When the physical clip replaced the virtual element in the playlist, the virtual
element’s boundaries are:
•
recalculated to match the boundaries of the restored clip, if the Use clip
boundaries option was selected.
•
preserved if the Use virtual element boundaries option was selected.
Virtual Element Name and Clip Name
When only the virtual element name or clip name is defined, the available name is
applied to the non-attributed name.
When both virtual element name and clip name are defined, the clip name
overwrites the virtual element name.
