The Aux Clip option allows you to add a new audio track to play from the start of
a play-list. For Example when a music bed needs to be played at the same time as
the original audio associated with the elements of a list or a particular clip needs
to be used instead of the original element audio. The auxiliary audio clip selected
is always played back with normal speed (100%), whatever the selected playback
speed for the video.
When the playback of the play-list is not started from the beginning, the system
calculates the offset between the current position and the beginning of the play-
list, and applies the same offset to the Aux Clip, so that it can remain
synchronised with the play-list. If the duration of the Aux Clip is longer than the
play-list duration, the auxiliary audio clip keeps playing even after the video has
stopped. Otherwise, the audio clip ends itself before the end of the play-list, when
the audio clip reaches its own OUT point.
Note
It is only possible to play an Aux Clip when the first 2 channels of an
XT server are being used for playback, If the play-list is loaded to
PGM3 of a an XT server the Aux track will not be present due to some
limitations of the XT server hardware.
