Glossary
Monitor Pane
Displays the current information for the channel. Displays a thumbnail of the clip
currently loaded in the channel and indicates the current application for the channel.
Contains a drop down menu for changing the channel’s application. For the currently
selected channel, the monitor pane is larger and has a white background.
Multi-Cam
A feature in which two of a channel's SDI inputs can be configured to record two
clips. This feature requires special licensing.
Non-Drop Frame Timecode
In non-drop frame timecode, all frames are numbered sequentially, but the ending
timecode of a program does not accurately give the program's length. Drop frame
timecode yields precise running times, but frames are not all numbered sequentially.
A frame number must be dropped periodically to keep the clock right.
Pane
A viewing area in a primary window that contains one or more controls. The
AppCenter interface is divided into three panes, which are used to display the channel
monitors, control applications, and manage clips. To activate a pane, click on it. Only
one pane is active at a time.
Program
A clip generated from a playlist. A program includes all the media in the playlist, but
does not include any event that breaks the flow of playout such as a pauses between
events.

transmission.

applications; it supports multipoint connections.
