NTRODUCTION

A playlist element whose corresponding clip does not contain an XT clip has to be
restored onto an EVS server if the user wants to play out on a player channel.

During the restore process, a progress bar is displayed in the status column of the

playlist element to monitor the restore process:

Two types of restore are available: full or partial restore. See the section ‘Restore
Options’
, on page 61.
Depending on the situation, IPDirector suggests restoring the playlist elements or
you launch the restore process manually. See the section ‘Restore Processes’, on
page 61.

PTIONS

Three Restore options are available:

Option Description

Partial Restore

In a partial restore, the clip containing the file to be restored
remains unchanged. A new clip is created and contains a file
and an XT clip, on the selected EVS server. This XT xlip
replaces the virtual element in the playlist.

Full Restore

In a full restore, an XT clip is created on the selected EVS
server, and added to the clip that contains the file to be
restored. In other words, no new clip is created in the

IPDirector database.

No (Restore)

No restore is performed and the element remains unavailable

on the XNet network.
