There are several ways to make an off-line playlist become on-line:
• Create or Load the off-line playlist on the Playlist Panel and then right-click the
Channel Name field and select a channel.
• Select a channel on the Playlist Panel first and then drag a playlist from the
Database Explorer window onto the top part of the Playlist Panel. This action
will remove any existing playlist previously loaded on the channel, replace it
with the off-line playlist and make it on-line.
The playlist receives a LSM ID which appears in the LSM ID field of the Playlist
Panel as well as in the LSM ID column of the Database Explorer.

While creating a new playlist, the Create a New Playlist window will open. This
window makes it possible to enter general and customer-defined data (called
“metadata”) for the playlist.
Window Overview
The New Playlist window is divided into two panes:
• The left pane contains the playlist information, i.e. playlist data in general and
in relation with IPDirector.
It is always displayed.
• The right pane contains the playlist Metadata, i.e. playlist data based on
customer-specific fields.
Clicking the right area in the Pane Display icon will display this right pane.
