6.1 INTRODUCTION
A playlist is a group of clips put together to play out in a desired order.
Depending on the required complexity, different video and audio transitions can be
defined between each element of the playlist. Two types of playlist exist: off-line
and on-line playlists. An offline playlist is a playlist that does not yet reside on an
XT[2] server but only exists inside the IPDirector database. For more information,
refer to the section on off-line and on-line playlists in the Playlist Panel chapter,
in Part 6 of this user manual.
6.2 PLAYLISTS TREE STRUCTURE
Playlists are stored in bank 0 of each page within an XT[2] server. There are 10
spaces per page giving room to 100 playlists per XT[2] server. The on-line
playlists tree structure of the Database Explorer shows each XT[2] server and a
sub tree for each page.
Right-clicking the playlists tree view gives access to the following contextual
menu:
Refer to section 6.4 ‘Playlist Contextual menu’ on page 62 for description of these
options.
