Function Description
Send to Provides a submenu with the list of possible
destinations to which the user can send the open
playlist.
The transfer type and file format (if relevant) are
defined in the Nearline definition in the Remote
Installer.
Flatten to XT
Displays a list of hi-res EVS servers and pages
available on the XNet network to which the user can
store a consolidated clip out of the open playlist.
The flattened clip will have the same VarID as the
original playlist. That is the reason why the flattened
clip cannot be stored on the same EVS server as the
original playlist, otherwise, this would result in a VarID
conflict.

The playlist will be published to the selected groups on
the condition that they have the adequate visibility
rights.
Edit/Rename Opens the Edit a Playlist window in which the users can
modify the name or information of the playlist loaded on
the Clip-List tab.
Regenerate T/C Output Allows generating a continuous timecode to be able to
browse a playlist easily.
Delete Playlist Deletes the playlist loaded on the Clip-List tab. The
option is only available when the playlist is displayed in
the Clip-List tab but not loaded on the player channel.
