Send to Provides a submenu with the list of possible destinations to which the
user can send the open playlist.
Examples of possible destinations are:
• the user's default bin
• a default archive target
• any target destination visible on the GigE network that has been
defined in the Remote Installer (CleanEdit targets, Avid targets,
Final Cut Pro targets, File targets, EVS servers targets). This is
used to make A/V material available to external systems.
Flatten to XT Displays a list of hi-res EVS servers and pages available on the XNet
network to which the user can store a consolidated clip out of the open
playlist.
The flattened clip will have the same VarID as the original playlist. That
is the reason why the flattened clip cannot be stored on the same EVS
server as the original playlist, otherwise, this would result in a VarID
conflict.
Backup to
Nearline Provides a submenu with the list of nearline folders to which the user
can back up the open playlist to a file.
The transfer types and file formats are defined in the Nearline definition
in the Remote Installer.
