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 Workstation operating mode 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.
NOTE: Playlists created in Front Panel mode do not have sections; however,
when playlists created in Workstation mode are played in front panel mode,
section properties are used for playout just as they would in workstation mode.
Source Clip The clip inserted in a list to create a play event.
Program Playlists can be saved as a program in iDDR Workstation mode. 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 loop record mode.
