9.3.1 CHANNEL INFO
Figure 101
The Channel Info area below each output monitor provides a wealth of useful information about the video
stream currently assigned to the channel. It may include any of the following:

Name – the output channel name, as set in Output Configuration (see Section 7.1.1).
Delegated channel – Normally, only one channel (the one delegated on the CS) displays a colored
background behind its Channel Info area. This identifies the channel being controlled at the
moment. A broad progress bar shown on the background marks the playhead position in clips.
In LINK mode, both Channel Info backgrounds are colored, so a white border marks the delegated
channel.
Tip: The specific background color indicates the source supplying the delegated channel, blue for the CLIP
LIST, gold for PLAY LIST, and green for LIVE (or Delayed) sources). See Section 8.3 for more on Source
Delegates.
