Changing Duration of Clips in a Playlist

Make sure the EDIT checkbox is checked in the Playlist View window. Position the cursor over a
clip and right-click. Select EDIT DURATION from the pulldown menu. Enter a duration in the
Duration window. The minimum duration is 3 seconds. The entry may be in one of these
formats.

• Hours, Minutes, Seconds and Frames entered as HHMMSSFF

04300102 = 4 Hours, 30 minutes, 1 second, 2 frames

• Hours, Minutes, Seconds and Frames entered as HH:MM:SS:FF

03:39:41:17 = 3 Hours, 39 minutes, 41 seconds, 17 frames

• As a whole number along with the special characters H for hours, S for seconds, M for minutes

7H would set 7 hour duration. 31m would set 31 minutes. 15s would set 15 seconds.

NOTE: The Clip duration is affected only within the Playlist, for this event. The duration of the
source clip is not changed. Other events containing the same clip are not changed.

Mapping GPO to Playlist Events

The MAXX-1200 has six General Purpose Outputs, referred to as GPO 1 through GPO 6. Any of
these can be programmed to go active at a pre-determined time, or offset, after the beginning of a
Playlist clip. An active duration can also be set, after which the output again goes inactive. In all
cases, every output will go inactive when a clip ends.
By default, a new clip contains no
programmed GPI output commands. Refer to Appendix A – Connector Specifications for details
on electrically interfacing to the GPO lines.

To Map a Playlist event to a GPO Line, Follow these steps.

1. Select EDIT>CONFIGURE >GPO. The screen of Figure 21 is displayed. GPO 1 through

6 are triggerable outputs. The checkboxes to the right of each selection represent channel
1, 2 and 3. GPO 6 is shown with the trigger option pulldown expanded.

a. Set the GPO of interest to PLAYLIST mode from the pulldown menu.
b. Set the Channel to 1, 2 and/or 3 by checking the appropriate check box to the right.

Click APPLY to activate the settings.

2. Check the EDIT checkbox in the Playlist View of the transport.

3. Place the cursor over a Clip in a Playlist. Right click on the clip. Select EDIT GPO. The

GPO Editor (Figure 22 ) appears.

4. Enable the GPO of interest by checking the corresponding ENABLED checkbox.

5. Enter an offset into the Clip to activate the GPO line in the Offset Field. The form of the

field is Hours, Minutes, Seconds and frames. ( HH:MM:SS:FF )

6. Enter the Duration for the GPO to remain active in the Duration Field using the same

format. Click APPLY to activate the changes.
