CTIONS
The Browser pane allows users to perform the following actions:
• Searching for media referenced in the IPDirector Database, just as a normal
Database Explorer. Several search methods are available, as well as the use of
saved filters.
• Adding the selected clip to the timeline. This is only possible if the clip includes
a hi-res clip element on an XT[2] server.
Compared to the Database Explorer, the Browser pane has a filter tool specific to
the timeline, which is called ‘Multi camera time code filtering’. It is explained in
this section. However, the Browser does not have the Auto-Play, Assign and Print
mode.

• Searches on individual columns displayed in the grid.

• Filtering based on search criteria that have been saved as a filter and can be
reused and associated to other search criteria.
