1.2.2. Database Explorer
The Database Explorer has been integrated into the AB Roll Playlist. It is used to organize
and search all media or data available in the XNet network, as well as to search for off-line
nearline files.
In the Database Explorer, you can access media and data either by using your knowledge
of the "clip hierarchy" methods used in EVS servers or by using the search features (quick
/ advanced).
In the AB Roll Playlist, the Database Explorer provides a view on clips and playlists. Even
files backed up on removable drives which have been removed (off-line nearline files) are
still listed in the Database Explorer to allow easy retrieval.
Bins can be created to organize clips and playlists and bin rules can be defined to
automatically copy clips or playlists within a bin, corresponding to a specific filter.
