3.2. Automatic Lock Timeline Function
3.2.1. Description
When player channels are associated to IPEdit, the so-called Lock Timeline mode is
automatically activated in IPDirector. The Lock Timeline mode prevents you and other
users from using the players of the Timeline Engine in another mode than the timeline
mode, which means that:
• Other users will still have the possibility to use both PGMs in another instance of
IPEdit.
• You and other users will have the possibility to load a timeline in a Control Panel.
You and other users will NOT be allowed to use one of the assigned PGMs to play a clip in
the Control Panel, or to load a playlist in the Playlist Panel, or in any use other than the
timeline mode.
3.2.2. Display
The Lock Timeline status is visible in the Channel Explorer: the Lock Timeline Mode
icon is displayed next to both PGMs assigned to IPEdit.
This Lock Timeline prevents you and other users from using the players of the Timeline
Engine in another mode than the timeline mode
3.2.3. Automatic Unlock
When you exit IPEdit or IPDirector whereas the timeline is NOT being played out, the
timeline lock is automatically removed.
When you exit IPEdit or IPDirector whereas the timeline is being played out, a message is
displayed and you can decide whether to exit IPEdit or not.
