6.1 INTRODUCTION

A playlist is a group of clips put together to play out in a desired order.

Depending on the required complexity, different video and audio transitions can be
defined between each element of the playlist. Two types of playlist exist: off-line
and on-line playlists. An offline playlist is a playlist that does not yet reside on an
EVS video server but only exists inside the IPDirector database. For more

information, refer to the section on off-line and on-line playlists in the Playlist
Panel
chapter, in Part 6 of this user manual.

6.2 PLAYLISTS TREE STRUCTURE

Playlists are stored in bank 0 of each page within an EVS video server. There are
10 spaces per page giving room to 100 playlists per EVS server. The on-line

tree for each page.

Right-clicking the playlists tree view gives access to the following contextual
menu:

Refer to section 6.4 ‘Playlist Contextual menu’ on page 65 for description of these

options.
