: A single list, showing all of the playlist elements in the order in which they

were positioned. This list does not separate elements by their device assignments.
The Playlist Editor’s global playout controls (Cue and Take) are also displayed and can
be used to control the playlist in sequential order. Note that when using the global
controls, you are restricted by the element’s device assignment. In other words, you
cannot cue and take an element assigned to one device (e.g. device1) on another
device (e.g. Device2). To cue and take on another device, you must enable and use
the Manual Playout buttons in the Device Views.

list for each device configured in Xplay. The device’s playlist is shown opposite the
Device View for the corresponding device. Each list only shows those elements that
target the associated device. To control the playlist, you must enable and use the
manual playout buttons within each individual Device View.
