PRINCIPLES
The conversion from playlist to timeline follows the below-mentioned principles:
• The conversion is only possible on the local server where the playlist is
stored.
• The conversion cannot be cancelled.
• When a target LSM ID is specified but not available, the conversion will not be
done and an error message is displayed.
• If an error occurs during the conversion, it will be displayed in the global
status bar of IPDirector.
CONVERSION METHODS
You can convert a playlist to a timeline from different modules;
• In IPEdit, by dragging a local playlist from the Browser to the Timeline pane.
• In the DB Explorer, by selecting the Convert to Timeline command from the
contextual menu in the playlist grid.
• In the Playlist Panel, by selecting the Convert to Timeline command from the
Playlist contextual menu.
Performing one of these actions opens the Make Timeline Online window.
