5. Playlist Editing
5.1. Introduction
The playlist can be edited for playout from within AB Roll Playlist. Advanced editing
functions like defining effects, and so on, are not supported in the AB Roll Playlist
application. The users will only be able to insert, remove or move elements within the
playlist.
If the playlist is altered inside AB Roll Playlist, the changes can automatically be reflected
in linked third party NRCS applications.
5.2. ABRoll Playlist Recue Modes
The AB Roll Playlist application can be used according to two different modes:
• AB Roll recue mode ON: when a modification is done in the rundown in between the
cued elements, the system will automatically update the channels assignment to
keep the ABCD order from the modification and recue the elements. This is called the
ripple-and-cue operation
• AB Roll recue mode OFF: any modification in the rundown will have no impact on the
cued elements.
The mode is set via the Remote Installer > Configure/Playlist tab, by selecting the
ABRoll recue mode option.
