Introduction

A timeline is a series of clips put together in a given sequence. Audio and video effects
can be added between the clips of a timeline to create transitions, and many other editing
actions are possible on a timeline. In a timeline, the video and audio tracks of a clip can be
desynchronized from each other, unlike in a playlist.

In this branch of the tree, you can see timelines but not create or edit them. Timelines are
created, managed and edited in the IPEdit Module which is documented separately.

Unlike the playlist branches of the tree, there is no contextual menu for the Timelines
branch in the Database Explorer tree.
