6.4.3 Creating an Edit
Possible Ways for Creating an Edit
From the IPD Xedio plugin, users can create an edit in one of the following ways:
•
Create an empty edit with an EDL containing the edit metadata. This is done by right-
clicking the Edit tree branch or an edit in the Elements grid, selecting New Edit from
the contextual menu and filling the New Edit window described in the next section.
The empty edit is automatically loaded on the timeline.
•
Convert a playlist into an edit, as described in section 6.3.3 “Converting a Playlist to
Edit” on page 49.
New Edit Window
Window Overview
The New Edit window makes it possible to enter general and customer-defined data
(called “metadata”) for the edit. It is as follows:
The New Edit window is divided into two panes:
1. The left pane contains the Edit Information, i.e. edit general data.
It is always displayed.
2. The right pane contains the Edit Metadata, i.e. edit data based on customer-specific
fields defined in the metadata profile.
It is displayed by clicking the right area in the Pane Display button .
Note
When the Edit/Rename option has been selected from the Edit contextual
menu, The Edit Edit window opens. It is similar to the New Edit window and it
shows the data already entered for the edit.
