They are both created with the same information (name, keywords,…).

When the new playlist is created from a server tree view in the Database Explorer, it is
made on-line on the selected EVS video server, as well as its corresponding Fill or Key
playlist.

When the new Fill (or Key) playlist is created from a clip-list Panel or a Playlist Panel
associated to a channel, the playlist is made on-line on the EVS video server of the
channel. If this channel is linked to another channel in a Fill & Key mode, the
corresponding Key (or Fill) playlist is made on-line on the EVS server of the corresponding
channel.

Manually Linking or Unlinking Two Playlists as Fill
and Key

Purpose

When creating a Fill (or Key) playlist, the corresponding Key (or Fill) playlist is
automatically created. However, with a drag-and-drop operation, it is possible either to
change the existing association afterwards, to associate two playlists for which the
respective links have been broken or to change the type of a Normal playlist to associate
it to a Fill or Key playlist.

How to Manually Associate Two Playlists as Fill and Key

To manually associate two playlists, proceed as follows:

1. In the Database Explorer, select a playlist 1 (Normal, Fill, or Key).

2. Drag it onto a playlist 2 (Normal, Fill, or Key), pressing the SHIFT and CTRL keys at

the same time.

The result will depend on the original type of the two playlists: some associations are not
allowed, some playlist type will be converted to another one.
