Saving a list as a program
Playlists can be saved as a program so that they can be managed as a single clip. This
saves the events in the list, but nothing that breaks the flow of playout such as pauses
or effects between events or sections. Saving a list does not consume media storage
space since the program merely references the source clip media that is already stored
in the media file system. If the source clips are deleted, the media referenced by the
program is preserved.
