How to Split a Playlist Element

A playlist element can be split in two elements. The playlist element may be a growing
clip.

To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Browse the playlist element until the first frame of what will be the second element.

2. Right-click the element to be split in the playlist grid.

The Playlist Element contextual menu is displayed.

3. Select Split Element.

The playlist element is split at the selected timecode. A second element is displayed in
the Playlist grid with the same name as the first one.

The transition between the two elements is automatically set as "Cut".

During playout, depending on the option selected for the When Splitting an Element
setting under Tools > Settings > Playlist > General, the system will stop on the last
frame of the element before the transition or apply an automatic transition between the two
elements. See section "General Settings" on page 131.

Replacing a Portion of Playlist Element by
another Clip

Introduction

In some workflows, it is required to replace a portion of A/V material by another one.

For example, when an ingest feed is recorded in a country and is broadcasted in another
country, the TV station may want to replace the original advertisement by local ones.

The "replace" operation consists in removing the undesirable material, by splitting an
ingest feed and trimming one of the resulting parts, and then in inserting the replacing
material. This can be done with the Split Element function.
