Term Definition
Playlist A list is a sequence of events.
Event Events are the components that make up a list. Events are created by adding a clip
or program to sections in a list.
Section Playlists created in AppCenter contain at least one section. All events in a playlist
are contained in sections. Sections have properties that include repeat and pause. A
playlist can have up to 100 sections. Each section can contain up to 1000 events.
Source Clip The clip inserted in a list to create a play event.
Program Playlists can be saved as a program in the K2 Media Client. Programs created from
a playlist include all the media and transitions in the playlist, but nothing that
breaks the flow of playout, such as a pause at the end of an event. Programs are also
created from the continuous record mode.
