Each line of the example appears with its explanation below:

#360PLAYLIST 2.0

Header line, this must always be present exactly as shown.

#StartTime 13000100

This is the Start Time in military format, hours, minutes, seconds and frames, without leading
zeros. This value shows 13:00:01 or 1 minute past 1 pm. The default is 0 which is 12 midnight.
While frames are present in this value, the last two digits should always be “00” when entering
any value except 0.

#Loop 0

This is the default, a looping list would show

“#Loop 1”

.

"/Public Service Announcement"

This is the first clip in the list, named Public Service Announcement. It is enclosed in quotes,
and preceded by a forward slash ( / ) which denotes that the clip is found in the root directory
(i.e. it is not in a subfolder).

"/Adverts/Commercial"

This is the second clip, named Commercial. It is in the Adverts subfolder. Further levels of
subfolder nesting would be shown as

“/Folder/Subfolder/ClipName”

.

"<HOLD>", HOLD

This is a Hold event. The list will stop until it is restarted by command.

"/Sitcom",#1@0;10

This clip has a GPI Output event associated with it, in this case Output #1, at an offset of 1
frame, for a duration of 10 frames. Similar to Start Time values, GPI Output Offsets and
Durations are represented as hours, minutes, seconds and frames without leading zeros. The
format is:

,#GPIOutputNumber@Offset;Duration

"/Movie of the Week",#2@15;1000,#6@1245015;400

This clip has two GPI Output events, Output #2 @ 15 frames offset ; 10 seconds duration, and
#6@1 hour 24 minutes 50 seconds 15 frames offset; 4 seconds duration.

"/Documentary", SKIP

This clip is skipped, this is programmed in the GUI by unchecking the check box for the event.

"/Still Frame"

Still frames appear the same as standard motion clips; the name of this clip is Still Frame.

"/Still Frame 2", frames=150

This still frame has a duration programmed. Unlike other time values, durations are frame
counts. At 59.94 Hz, this is a 5 second duration. While it is possible to add a duration to a
motion clip, this is not recommended. It is only allowed to specify fewer frames than the
edited length of the clip (Mark In to Mark Out). You cannot make the clip “loop” by specifying
a longer duration.
When opening Playlist files in a text editor, you may have to change the file type to “All Files”
to be able to see files with the .lst extension.
