Grass Valley Aurora Playout v.8.1 - Manual (Page 98)

Adding placeholders
Placeholders are essentially assignments for editors, who can then create clips for the story, and
send them to a K2 Summit/SAN system for playback. You need to create a placeholder for each
clip that you link to a rundown.
1. In the Assignment List tool, click the New Placeholder button.
The New Clip Entry dialog box opens.
2. Enter the clip name.
The name identifies the placeholder in the Assignment List (which can also be seen in the
Newsroom Computer System).
