Applying a Macro Command on Linked Playlists
Insert Tag Macro Command
When a macro command corresponding to an Insert Tag action (GPI, Mute On, Mute Off,
Hide On, Hide Off, Audio swap) is applied to a playlist element, the macro command is
not applied on corresponding elements from linked playlists.
Transition Effect Macro Command
When a macro command corresponding to a transition effect action (define audio/video
transition effect, define Still/Start mode, reset transition to default) is applied to a playlist
element, the macro command is applied on corresponding elements from linked playlists.
Limitations
In certain circumstances, the macro command will not be applied:
• In case of multiselection, the macro command will be applied to all the elements of the
selection, except when a macro command corresponding to GPI, Mute On or Mute Off
is linked to the current position.
• If the "Link to" parameter is set to "current position" and this position is not known,
because:
◦ the playlist is off-line
◦ the playlist is on-line but not loaded on a channel
◦ the playlist element has been trimmed and the "Current Position" selected in the
Settings is no more between the IN and OUT points of the element.
• If a GPI is not configured as OUTPUT GPI on the EVS video server, an error message
is displayed.
