EFAULT START MODE PARAMETERS FOR TRANSITIONS
To define the default start mode of elements added to a play-list use the following
dialogue settings:
Still Mode
The still mode setting determines if the play-list should stop on the selected
element and if it should stop where it stops and how it should behave.
The options are:
• Stop on first frame of current clip
• Stop on last frame of previous clip
• Stop on last frame of the previous clip, wait, then jump on first
The play-list will stop on the last frame of the previous clip, then jump on the
first frame of the selected element after a certain time which is defined in the
value box.
Start Mode
If a Still mode is defined, one of the following start modes must be defined on the
selected element if ‘automatically’ was already selected when a ‘Still mode’ is
defined, it will be changed to the ‘Manual’ start mode as the modes are mutually
exclusive.
• Manually: the selected element must be started manually (by a play or play var
command) on the Play-List panel, keyboard or ShuttlePRO controller.
• On GPI : the selected element will be started when a GPI trigger is received on
the corresponding XT server (the one the play-list is to be played on). The GPI
number and its trigger mode are defined in the general settings, GPI section.
When On GPI is selected, the corresponding GPI, which has been configured to
start a PLAY command on the on-air channel associated to the play-list tab, is
displayed in the description field.
