Post-Roll Characteristics
•
The Post-Roll duration is independent of the speed of the playlist. This means that the
playlist will continue to be played after the OUT point for the duration of the Post-Roll,
whatever the speed of the element may be.
For example, if the Post-Roll duration is set to 2 sec, the element will be played after
its OUT point during 2 sec at the speed defined.
•
The Post-Roll duration can be shortened if there is not enough A/V material in the
guardband. In this case, the playout will freeze on the Protect OUT point of the playlist
element.
