To preview and playout a multi-device playlist using the ByDevice playlist view:
1.
Load a playlist into the Playlist Editor (see page 3-6 ).
The playlist is immediately divided up and each playlist element is placed in a playlist
according to its assigned or target device (figure
4-10 ).
Since the C UE O N L OAD P LAYLIST setting is enabled, the first playlist element for each
device is cued onto their assigned output device.
Also note that since Device1 and Device 2 are connected to both an output device and
a Preview device, a preview of the cued elements’ playout is run on the Preview device
when the element is cued.
Figure 4-10. The Cue On Load Playlist setting automatically cues the elements to their assigned devices
2. Control each device separately using each Device View’s manual playout buttons.
Figure 4-11. Use the manual playout buttons (Cue and Take) to control the playlist elements for the device
