For every server, the audio output on which the auxiliary clip of the playlist will be played
out is defined in the Tools > Settings > Playlists > Playlist / Auxiliary Track category.
See section "Auxiliary Track Settings" on page 147.

Limitation for the Use of an Auxiliary Clip

It is only possible to play an auxiliary clip when the first 2 channels of an EVS server are
being used for playout. If the playlist is loaded on PGM3 of an EVS server, the Aux track
will not be present due to some limitations of the EVS server hardware.

How to Associate an Auxiliary Audio Clip to a Playlist

To associate an auxiliary audio clip to a playlist open in a Playlist Panel, proceed as
follows:

1. In the Database Explorer, select the clip you want to associate as auxiliary clip.

2. Drag it to the AuxClip area of the status bar on the Playlist Panel.

This clip is then defined as the auxiliary clip for the playlist. The name and LSM ID of the
clip is displayed in the AuxClip area. The background of this zone is then green.

Note

Replacing an auxiliary clip: If a clip was already defined as the auxiliary clip
for the playlist, it is replaced by associating another auxiliary clip.

Removing an auxiliary clip: To remove an auxiliary clip double-click on the
AuxClip zone. The auxiliary clip is then removed from the playlist and the zone
displays "None".

1.6.13. Working with End Cue

Purpose

Using the END CUE function gives the ability to send a signal (OUTPUT GPI) at a certain
point in time, called the END CUE duration, before the playlist stops.

The purpose of using the END CUE function is to trigger a countdown in the control room
which indicates to the operator when to switch to another device.

When the END CUE mode is activated, the GPI is sent every time the playlist stops,
which means:

at the end of the playlist, except if the loop mode is activated and the start mode
option of the first element is set to Automatically.

every time a still mode option (Stop on Last, Stop on Last, Wait, Jump on First or
Stop on First) is set on an element.
