3.8 Playing out an Edit
3.8.1 Context of Use
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.
3.8.2 Playing out the Edit
Introduction
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 IPD Xedio plugin 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).
