4.2.3. Creating an Off-line Playlist from a Nearline
Storage
The clips to be included in the playlist are present on a nearline storage (SAN, IPDrive,…),
but not (all) on an EVS server.
The playlist to be created can be sent to a target for further editing on an NLE system
(AVID, FCP, CE,…) and/or restored to the server when it has to be played out.
# Action See section...
1. Sort the files present on the nearline using the Software
Player, and place them into a bin.
2. Create an off-line playlist on the Software Player, and
define it as the default playlist. "Creating Playlists" on
page 37.
3. Add the clips (files and possibly some XT clips) into the
playlist. "Adding Elements to a
Playlist" on page 68.
4. Select a player channel and restore the files on an
online EVS server.
OR
Send the playlist (EDL + clips) to a target
corresponding to the NLE system in which you need to
further edit the playlist. "Restoring a Playlist
Element" on page 76.
OR
"Transferring Playlists"
on page 61.
4.2.4. Creating a Playlist with Virtual Playlist
Elements
In some production workflows, the playlist definition is based on a rundown managed by a
Newsroom Computer System (NRCS). The playlist definition is thus automatically
imported into IPDirector, whereas the clips themselves are not yet available on the XNet
network or on the GigE network.
In other workflows, the playlists are created manually in IPDirector, but some clips will
only be available on the XNet network or on the GigE network later on.
