Inserting media in a playlist

A new list contains one section and no events. Events are played in the order they are inserted. You
can move events in the list up or down, or insert new events between existing ones by selecting the
insertion point.

Selecting the insertion point in a playlist

When using the

Insert

button or menu item, the insertion point is after the currently selected

event.

When using the drag and drop method, you see a drop cursor as you drag the event over the list.
The drop cursor indicates where the new event will be inserted.

NOTE: The time cursor only indicates the current play position, and cannot be selected and moved.
Selecting and dragging may inadvertently select and move the event.

Inserting events

Drag and drop assets from the Clips pane using the drop cursor to locate the insertion point.

Drag and drop from the monitor pane of a play channel. Select the thumbnail or video image,
then drag to the playlist channel. Use the drop cursor to locate the insertion point.

Double-click an asset in the Clips pane. The asset is inserted in the list after the insertion point.

Select an event in the list as the insert point, then select one or more assets in the Clips pane.
