NTRODUCTION
There are different ways to open a timeline. This section describes the two modes
to open the timeline from IPEdit.
Prerequisites
In all cases, you first need to ensure that a timeline engine is assigned to IPEdit.
Conditions to Fulfil
The timeline can only be loaded in IPEdit if the following conditions are fulfilled:
• The timeline contains the same number of tracks and channels as the local
XT[2] server configuration.
If this is not the case, you cannot load the timeline.
• The timeline definition, at least, is stored on the local XT[2] server.
If this is not the case, you can create a copy of the timeline definition and, if
requested, a copy of its elements.
