NTRODUCTION
Play-Lists are a group of clips put together to play out in a desired order.
Depending on the complexity required, different video and audio transitions can be
defined between each element of the play-list. Two types of play-lists exist: off-
line and on-line play-lists. For more information on what is an online and an off-
line play-list, refer to the section on off-line and on-line play-lists in the Play-List
Editor chapter, in part 3 of this user manual.

TRUCTURE
Play-Lists are stored in bank 0 of each page within an XT server. There are 10
spaces per page giving 100 play-lists per XT server. The tree structure of the
Database Explorer shows each XT server and a sub tree for each page.
Note
Offline play-lists are stored in BINS of the IP Director system. An offline
play-list is simply a play-list that does not yet reside on an XT server.
