The following options are available:

x Clear Project—Removes any project configuration from the hard drive on the Controller.

Composer prompts for a backup before erasing the project configuration information to

present a blank project. Use this option with caution.

x Load Project—Loads a selected project into the currently-connected Controller. Composer

prompts you for a backup before it clears the project configuration information, and replaces

it with a selected project you can browse to and load.

x Run Interview—Launches Interviewer, a wizard that takes you through the design and setup

of a Control4 system. See “Ways to Create a Project in Composer Pro.”

x Connect to Director—Connects you to a Director residing on the Controller. When you

connect, project configuration information from the Controller is presented to the screen in

Composer. This option is available when connected to a Virtual Director.

x Disconnect from Director—Disconnects you from a Director. Composer prompts you to

back up your project before disconnecting you from the currently-connected Director. This

option is available when connected to a Director.

x Backup—Backs up the current project to your computer. The first time you back up,

Composer prompts you for a filename. It also prompts to back up any media information. If

you choose this option, the current project becomes an option in the File > Load Project list.

x Backup As—Backs up the current project, and prompts you to enter the name of the file. It

also prompts to back up any media information. If you choose this option, the current project

becomes an option in the File > Load Project list.

x Refresh—Refreshes the current Composer Pro project.

x Refresh Navigators—Refreshes the Navigators connected to the system.

Composer Media menu from the menu bar in the Media view.

From the Media menu, you can create, delete, and rename playlists. You can also clear, export, and

example, all DVDs with associated Cover Art, title, notes, etc., for each DVD in a Disc Changer.
