Introduction

Opening a Playlist

Opening a playlist in the Playlist Panel consists of displaying all playlist information in the
Playlist Panel, when no player is associated with it. All functions are unavailable with the
exception of the Player field, the LSM ID field and the Playlist grid which can be
accessed. Elements can be added, removed and re-ordered, transition types and
durations can be modified but the playlist cannot be viewed or played.

Loading Media

The meaning of loading media is explained hereafter.

A record train, or train, corresponds to the media being recorded live from a camera and
sent to an EVS video server through a recorder channel.

A recording ingest corresponds to the same media for which an IN point has been marked
at a specific timecode to start the creation of a clip.

The action of associating a type of media with a player channel or with the Software
Player is called "loading media".

To action of loading a playlist in the Playlist Panel implies that a player must have been
associated with the Playlist Panel to be able to play the playlist.

When the selected player is a player channel:

off-line playlists automatically become on-line on the EVS server of the controlled
player channel.
