Ways to Add Clips to a Playlist

• Outside the Playout mode, insert the clip loaded on the first controlled PGM before or after the active element of the active playlist.
• In Playlist mode, add the clip angle loaded on the PRV channel at the end of the active playlist.
• In Playlist Edit mode, insert the clip loaded on the PRV channel before or after the active element of the active playlist. See section Inserting Clips in the Loaded Playlist from the Remote Panel.
• Add the clip angle loaded on the smallest controlled PGM at the end of a local playlist mapped to a Shortcut button (Add to Playlist function).

In case of empty playlist, the playlist is created at the same time.

• Default Playlist Speed:

By default, when an element is added to a playlist, the playlist element speed is set to Unknown, meaning that the speed of the previous element in the playlist will be used as a reference for the current element. The default playlist element speed can be customized from the LSM-VIA configuration tool with the Default Playlist Speed parameter.

• Insert SLSM Native Speed:

This parameter defines whether an SLSM clip inserted into a playlist will automatically be set to be played out at its native speed, or at the value defined in the Default Playlist Speed parameter.
