RINCIPLES

Offline GX clips are defined in the GX server database but not yet uploaded on

the GX Clips drive. When GX clips are offline, they are fully editable and can be

edited in the Edit GX Clips window (See also section 5.5).
When the clips are ready for playout, you need to upload them to the GX Clips

drive: this is the process of putting the GX clips online. Only the GX clips

imported using the Direct Import option are automatically put online.

Important
Online GX clips only will be visible to the protocol clients when the GX

server will be started.
