Through the Channel Explorer, any IPDirector workstation can take control of one or
several channels on EVS servers that are connected to the XNet network.
You can perform many operations from the Channel Explorer module, for example:
• lock channels from use by others
• start or stop an ingest
• gang multiple channels
• create specialized playback modes.
Indeed, the flexibility of IPDirector allows multiple channels to be managed together in a
variety of methods:
• Ganged channels: allowing simultaneous control of several channels from one control
panel (recorders or players)
• Fill and Key: allowing 2 clips to be linked in a Fill/Key pairing for playback to a vision
mixer (switcher) or keyable device.
• Program/preview: allowing the playout of audio and video transition effects between
clips, playlist elements or timeline elements.
