2.10 PLAYING OUT OR EXPORTING AN EDIT
When an edit has been completed, it can either be immediately played out as
video or rendered to a file type for transfer to another system or used by the other
Xedio software suite.

NTRODUCTION
Playing out an edit consists of ‘outputting’ the edit straight to an SDI connection.
The playout option is therefore available only on workstations equipped with an
EVS SDI output board (PCX2 or PCX3).
You can play out an edit from two different ‘locations’:
•
from the Xedio CleanEdit application, via the Playout tab.
You use such a solution when you want to playout some edits individually.
This section will cover the playout from Playout tab.
•
from the Xedio Playout Organizer.
You use such a solution when you want to manage several edits in your
playout, and/or when a dedicated playout server is installed on your setup.
This section is covered in the Playout Organizer user manual.
Both playout solutions cannot be used at the same time on the same machine
because they would both try to attach to the EVS SDI output board (PCX2 or
PCX3).
