13.2.4 PRESET BIN
Another very useful feature shared by all three of TriCaster’s media players is the Preset Bin ,
which provides quick and convenient access to multiple playlists.
As mentioned back in Section 4.8.1, presets also store the state of various media player controls.
If you change playlists by selecting another preset, it’s almost as though you are accessing
another media player. Use presets for quick access to different categories of content for use
during a live presentation, playlists prepared for different clients, or for completely different
programs you produce.
Presets are named, and conveniently display a small representative image (taken from the first
entry in the playlist). As you move the mouse over preset icons they expand to provide an
enlarged view of the icon for the first playlist item. To populate a new preset, simply click a
blank preset icon.

To modify the default name assigned to a preset, right-click a preset icon to open its context
menu, and select
Rename from the list. Other menu options include Delete , Export and Import
(the file will be saved with the extension ‘.pst’).
