EDITING PLAYLISTS
Removing a Clip from a Playlist
To remove a Clip from a Playlist:
A. Make sure the clip to be removed is not PLAYING or CUED
B. Position the cursor over the Clip and right-click. Select REMOVE from the pulldown menu.
Removing All Clips Above or Below the Selected Clip
All clips above or below the selected clip can be removed unless a CUED or PLAYING clip is
affected. Maxx 6T will “grey out” these options if removal is not allowed for this reason.
To Remove All clips above a selected clip:
A. Move the cursor over the clip to select it
B. Right click the mouse and select Remove All Above from the pulldown menu.
To Remove All clips below a selected clip:
A. Move the cursor over the clip to select it
B. Right click the mouse and select Remove All Below from the pulldown menu.
Inserting a HOLD into a Playlist
The HOLD command inserts a hold (wait) event in a Playlist immediately before the selected clip.
The PLAY or JUMP command will restart a Playlist after it has stopped on a HOLD line. The HOLD
command is also available in the Playlist Item Context Menu, accessed by right-clicking in the
Playlist item window. If a Programmed Start Time has been set and is armed, the Playlist will
resume when the Programmed Start Time occurs. See Page 55 for instructions on setting a
programmed start time.
Appending a Playlist (FILE->APPEND)
Make sure the EDIT checkbox is checked in the Playlist View window.
Click FILE->APPEND from the Playlist View to bring up the list of available PlayLists. Double-click
on a playlist to load it. It will appear at the end of the list after a label event that shows the name of
the appended list. This operation can be performed during playback, allowing a new playlist to be
loaded without interruption of programming.
Changing the 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 4 seconds. The entry may be in one of these formats.
1. Hours, Minutes, Seconds and Frames entered as HHMMSSFF
04300102 = 4 Hours, 30 minutes, 1 second, 2 frames
2. Hours, Minutes, Seconds and Frames entered as HH:MM:SS:FF
03:39:41:17 = 3 Hours, 39 minutes, 41 seconds, 17 frames
3. 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.
