By right-clicking on a playback channel, a contextual menu appears. If the user
selects ‘Set as Default Player’ the user interface displays the name of this
selected channel in an icon in the IP Director status bar.
This selection allows the user to open a new Database Explorer, IPLogger, Play-
list Editor or IP Timeline window and automatically have the default player be
selected as the linked channel for those windows.
Note
If the default channel is a channel only accessible to the workstation
the user is logged into, the default player assignment may not be
accessible when the user moves to another workstation. This is due to a
user rights restriction and is intentional.
