Getting started with Xbuilder
Configuring a device for the verification of playlist
elements
Xbuilder can be configured to manually or automatically verify the elements of a playlist
have been published to specified devices. Elements that have not been published are
identified and highlighted in the playlist so that they can be published. For this verification
step to be accomplished, the target devices that will be checked must first be assigned in
the Device Manager.
To specify a device for the verification of playlist elements:
1.
Open the Device Manager by selecting T OOLS >D EVICE M ANAGER .
The D EVICE C ONFIGURATION dialog box appears.
