5.6.4. Copying Playlists
Introduction
From the VGA Clip screen and the Remote Panel, you can copy playlists.
The copy process is seamless to the user as long or short copies of a playlist are
performed as a background process. If the destination playlist is recalled and the on-air
playlist element has not yet been transferred to the local machine, the on-air element
played out is the original one. The on-air element will be automatically copied locally when
the playlist will be removed from the playout channel.
Copy Options
When you copy a distant playlist from the VGA, or a local/distant playlist from the Remote
Panel to the local EVS server, you have different options:
• The EDL copy copies only the playlist definition while the playlist elements remain at
their original location.
• The EDL+Clips copy copies the playlist definition and the playlist elements to the
destination. In this case, you must also choose one of the following:
◦ The short copy that copies only the material included between the IN and OUT
points of the playlist elements with the clip guardbands as defined on the
destination system.
◦ The long copy that copies the complete original clips. This makes a difference
when the playlist elements have been trimmed compared to the original clip.
EDL+Clips copy processes cannot be queued. If the operator tries starting a new copy
process while the previous one is still running, a message will ask him whether he wants
to stop the previous process to start the new one, or cancel his new request.
