IP Director Version 4.4 – User Manual – Part 1: Introduction

EVS Broadcast Equipment - – March 2008

Issue 4.4.B

If a default recorder is not set, then:

• PGM 1 takes Rec 1 as its default

• PGM 2 takes Rec 2 as its default, etc…

If there are more play channels than record channels then every additional

channel takes Rec 1 as its default

3.4.3 HOW TO SET UP THE DEFAULT PLAYER CHANNEL FOR THE

USER INTERFACE

By right-clicking on a playback channel, a contextual menu appears. If the user

selects ‘Set as Default Player’ the user interface displays the name of this

selected channel in an icon in the IP Director status bar.

This selection allows the user to open a new Database Explorer, IPLogger, Play-

list Editor or IP Timeline window and automatically have the default player be

selected as the linked channel for those windows.

Note

If the default channel is a channel only accessible to the workstation

the user is logged into, the default player assignment may not be

accessible when the user moves to another workstation. This is due to a

user rights restriction and is intentional.
