Setting a Start Time for a Playlist
Set a start time for a Playlist by entering a twenty four hour time of day in Hours, Minutes and
Seconds in the START TIME field (see Figure 21 ). Click on any field to edit the field. Check the
ARM START TIME checkbox to arm the start time. The ARM START TIME checkbox will
automatically uncheck itself once the playlist has started
Stopping a Playlist (STOP)
Click STOP to halt a Playlist.
Pausing a Playlist (PLAY/PAUSE)
When a Playlist is running, the PLAY key will change to indicate PAUSE. Pressing PAUSE stops the
Playlist immediately, on the current frame of a clip. Pressing it again will resume playback.
Cueing a Clip (CUE)
When the Playlist is running, click CUE to immediately prepare a selected clip for playback.
When the current clip is finished playing, the Playlist will play the Cued clip, followed by all
subsequent clips. This allows the user to skip over clips that appear in the list between the currently
playing clip and the selected clip. The user may also re-cue a clip that has already been played. In
this case, the Playlist will restart from the selected clip, and all subsequent events will be played (or
re-played) in sequence. When the Playlist is stopped, CUE will prepare the selected clip to play
when Play is pressed, or the list is started automatically by Arm Start Time.
Looping a Playlist (LOOP [X])
To loop the entire playlist after the last clip completes, check the LOOP checkbox at any time.
Upon un-checking, the list will play to completion and then stop.
Showing the First Frame of a CUED clip (SHOW)
When a clip is cued, the STOP button legend changes to SHOW. Pressing it will display the first
frame of the cued clip.
Preparing the Next Clip for Playback (NEXT)
When a Playlist is stopped, click NEXT to prepare the next clip in the Playlist for playback. While
the Playlist is running, NEXT will immediately begin playing the next clip in the Playlist. (The next
clip may require several seconds to load and cue for a seamless transition.) If the next event in the
Playlist is a HOLD, the NEXT command will move to the Hold event, and video will display black.
