When a partial loop previously defined is no more needed, the user may remove
the loop condition. This will not remove any element of the loop.
In case the loop is part of a group, the group must be expanded to be able to
remove the loop it contains.
How to Remove a Partial Loop
To remove the loop condition, proceed as follows:
1. Select all the elements of the loop or only the last one.
2. Right-click one of the elements of the selection.
The Playlist Element contextual menu is displayed.
3. Select Remove LOOP from the menu.
The system removes the partial loop condition and the loop staple is removed from
the playlist grid.
Note
To remove a full loop, refer to section ‘How to Activate the Global Loop
Mode’ on page 82.

The Aux Clip option allows you to add a new audio track to play from the start of
a playlist. For example when a music bed needs to be played at the same time as
the original audio associated with the elements of a list or a particular clip needs
to be used instead of the original element audio. The auxiliary audio clip selected
is always played back with normal speed (100%), whatever the selected playback
speed for the video.
When the playback of the playlist is not started from the beginning, the system
calculates the offset between the current position and the beginning of the
playlist, and applies the same offset to the auxiliary clip, so that it can remain
synchronised with the playlist.
If the duration of the auxiliary clip is longer than the playlist duration, the auxiliary
audio clip keeps playing even after the video has stopped.
Otherwise, the auxiliary audio clip ends itself before the end of the playlist, when
the auxiliary audio clip reaches its own OUT point.
For every server, the audio output on which the auxiliary clip of the playlist will be
played out is defined in the Tools > Settings > Playlists > Playlist / Auxiliary
Track category. Refer to section 1.8.5 ‘Auxiliary Track Settings’ on page 116.
